      damn, you guys must have a nice smooth course. I vette wouldn't even make it around the course at our rallycrosses, lol......he'd either destroy his front clip or get stuck in slick wet clay, lol.

      love the jump pic, btw.

                No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                          Took it out on Sunday, did great! Next step is to replace all four shocks and fix the exhaust.
                          I'm not sure which shocks I'm going to get. I need a 3" or 4" longer shock for the rear and stock length for the front. I am currently running billy hds in the front but one is blown pretty bad.

                          The exhaust has had a leak at the flange for awhile and I recently shoved a rock through the muffler.

                            Took the spring out and did some measuring for new rear shocks. In that pic there is still about 1/2" before the tire rubs.

                              Jeeeeeez. You're making me regret those trailing arm reinforcements. My tire can't go nearly that high.

                                I was curious about that when I saw your pic. The measurements were roughly 13.75" compressed and 22.5" extended so about 9.25" of travel. Fox doesn't have a shock that lines up with that and I'm going to have to make a mount that will lower the upper mount about .5". So the question is should i go with more droop or more bump :/

                                A 10" shock from fox is 16" comp is 26 ext
                                A 8" shock is 13.8 but only is 21.8 extended which is what I have already
                                And there is an 8.5" 14.3 - 22.8
