    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    I can get to Montana faster than I can get to Calgary or Edmonton. I would love to get this as soon as things fully open up.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    Winter just wont f*ck off. Last week it was Manitoba getting slammed, today it is Alberta and by association here. I am watching the snow blow in horizontally. The weather is so far below the historical average it isn't even funny: Seems the only thing that isn't rapidly inflating these...

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    To be clear I never drove on that. This is an aesthetic upgrade forced by the tie rod hitting the wheel since the drop spindles went on.

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    That's what I have on the TBSS. The front of the Monte right now is a billet 1/4" spacer, a 1.5" adapter, and a generic cast parts store 5/16" spacer... sketchy. Hence these hub-centric jobbies. When the LS1 front brake conversion happens we'll be at close to 2.25". Perfecto.

    MONTE CARLO "COPO" Monte Carlo SS - Turbosaurus Build (Swinging Dick Racing's c*ck got bent... she bounced a little too high & hard, & came down awkwardly)

    Way more expensive than what seems justified. But, I can't roll around on a stack of adapters, spacers, and washers on the front of the car. I will need to get back at this car soon... but, I am still disappointed at it. Me. The process.

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    Made some progress on the trunk mount. Took a lot of time doing that decorative insert... because reasons. With that, the tab, and the reinforcement under the runs it is significantly more rigid. I have a few more additions to make - but it is solid enough that you can rock the car with it...

    2019 Challenger Widebooty HellKitty (she's giving me the meatsweats...)

    When things don't exist, you make them. It all starts with a template. Funny thing is 1/8" aluminum doesn't bend nearly as easy as pizza boxes. Took a few tweaks to get the contour and pitch correct. It is bolted under the battery tray, and had to make an encapsulated bolt and an...

    Octane Booster

    Obviously this is a mechanical/tuning issue, not an octane issue. Pretty obvious when and where more octane (slower controlled ignition) is needed. Here is a horrific review, but a complete-ish list of options: https://www.thedrive.com/reviews/28072/best-octane-boosters Obviously there is...

    Olds ticket to 9s... LS swap adventure.

    Nope. No adapters required - I've got loads of those (and more in the mail).

    Oooh. I do love me some 15x8.5 Vector wheels. Keep me in mind when you go to unload those.

    Getting the F' Outta Dodge.

    Cool. I developed a huge appreciation for wartime aircraft as a young man. The Allies got it right using naming conventions that inspired people. Thunderbolt. Lightening. https://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/news/features/history/p-38.html Hellcat...

    Did BRP sell you that "muscle car" pan too? If so, watch out for bumps.
