Well got home about a month ago from my latest deployment...Friday I decided to get the '65 fired up and ready for the Clash of the Titans race in San Antonio...car had sat for 7 months and it sure was happy to be out at the track...First pass it went into a big wheelstand and started moving to the rt on me so had to get out of it, and came down pretty hard, get it back to pits and all is well...adjust the front shocks and on the next pass it runs the fastest it ever has, 9.40 at 139 and 5.91 in the 1/8, even went 1.27 60'...previous best is a 9.54 at 139 and 1.28 in the 1/8 the only change was the timing, lol...Was a blast, and to think the car was for sale, I was burnt out, but now I'm ready to go racing...attached is a link to some pics of the big wheelstand, still trying to find some video...thank you all for all the help over the years, and thanks to Dwayne Porter for an awesome top end set-up and James Monroe for the injection set up... http://www.reactiontimephotos.com/Cars/Clash-of-the-Titans-11-25-and/14840265_Cbup8#1109168473_dMXZ3

Looks like you are getting some pretty good use out of those shocks.  Gotta love how you can go back pop the hood and calm it down with a few clicks
