I thought you guys would like to see a video of the Trans Am out for the break-in of the motor. This was shifting at 5000rpm. The motor is loosening up as time goes by. I am still undecided whether I want to put a restrictor place on it to run AI or just let it go and run AIX.
Notice the highly tuned 140,000 mile GM springs!!

Yeah, I know
It's losing parts as we speak. It has a CMC motor, just like your car, right?

Do you have a target date to have it on track with us for a race?

I don't know if I am going to have it ready before fall. I am going to have everything done but the cage. I might just run it in the TT group until next season.

It will definately by AI, maybe even AIX. The motor should be putting out somewhere around 420 or so to the wheels right now. I heard there was a silver Mustang in AIX here in TX that needs a F-body to chase.

Mine is 100% AI...always has been. Only thing I been chasing this year is a black foxbody GT with a leaky gas tank! :lol:
Thats a lot of power for an AI car, even for a heavy F-bod... If you run X, beware, we are re-instituting the distribution of "Manties" this year.
There is a pretty good reason to run X this year though because Hoosier has stepped up with a great tire program and there are 3 or 4 guys running it this year.
See ya soon!

All still too manly... How about a barbie doll dressed like a Ken doll glued to their trunk lid standing up...?

Are you guys suggesting that the real men(or women) run in AI or CMC?

Thanks Mitch. I am working on finding a set of coilovers right now. I am leaning towards the Cround Control with the Koni's that I already have and somewhere around 750/250 for springs. Any thoughts? Do you know of anyone with a set of coilovers for sale that fit Koni's? I haven't seen any on the different sites.

Nope. It's a special award you don't want to get! ;)
