Default Having some fun with the new H/C/I set up **video**

Decided to go out and destroy my street tires.

they are super old, I think about 7 years old, so there just plain unsafe..... so I went and did a bunch of dumb junk to burn them off, haha.

hope you enjoy, because I know I had fun

new SFI balencer is on...... vibration is still there...... cant figure out WTF it is. Also the car has been acting up a bit, acting like its running rich. Gotta take it back to the guy that tuned it to see what the hell is going on!

shaky motor at idle and running rich could possible be a rocker that needs adjusting I guess. Does it seem like it may cut out a bit when starting out with the foot barely on the gas?

Sounds damn good!!!!!!!!!!!!! One thing my wife never tells me to do is, Grow up. Because I never did. 50 year old kid here. Only live once and ya can't take it with ya.

First time I've had tires last on the back of mine for more than 6 months. I am starting to get a vibration on the block at 38 to 4k. Going to replace the HB soon and see if that is my problem.
