Default I finally got my fix today

After replacing my water pump yesterday, I started her up and flushed the cooling system. When I got home from work today I took her for a spin. No videos The front end feels like it's drifting and I think it's the coilovers in the rear that need to be stiffened. I have a new GoPro camera for the car. I will mount it this weekend and shoot some vids. Should be fun. I did notice the BFG drag radials really hook. No more sling shot action, just get up and go.

I set the camera pod up tonight. No more flying cameras! The only thing that sucks is the GoPro doesn't have any sound due to it's water tight case. I'm going to drill some holes to get some sound. What's a vid without sound?
I took her out again today. She sounds wicked let me tell you. She lays two wide black marks. I went to O'Reilly's to buy a new shifter boot. When I came out and started her up my linkage was jammed, damn toploader! I could see one of the rods came off. Apparently one of the new spring clips came off. I called a buddy and he brought me one off his toploader. Of course I backed up and lit them up in the parking lot. All I seen was two beautiful black marks.
I found out the other day I will be without my car most of the summer. I have to go to Fairbanks and work until the job is finished. Now that sucks.
