Hey Phil
We should set up a 1/2 mile get together with some other forum members for next season . We have salt on the roads so it's no bueno for us Canadians to be out with our cars. And I drive mine to tracks. How far is Indiana from you ?

pulling a trailer it’s about 20 hours. I’m game for that one and a couple others if we can get a crew together.

I’m driving 33 hours to race on the west coast of US from florida. I’m afraid you don’t have much of an excuse now. Time to saddle up.
Utah ain't the west coast. That's the middle coast, or something like that

It’s a 8 hour tow from Southern Utah where I live. Gila Bend Az is about 3 hours east of San Diego, Calif.

That's the grinch right?

What is that dark line just south of the panel meet? Is that rubber remnant up against an uneven panel edge?

I have clear bra on the lower facia to protect it from those rear tires. That black line is on the edge of the expel and it won’t wipe off. Bah humbug

Actually the “Grinch” Hellcat already exists. Originally running out of SoCal it has been the fastest Hellcat in the West for some time now. After this one last half mile, we will be moving in that direction and with the goal to take that title... Stinkeye will probably meet up with Mr. Grinch at some point.

Yeah bring it! You need to run it stock to get a baseline for the future. It’s not like a stock Hellcat is slow when you’ve got that peddle down for a full half mile. The air is going to be good, so not only good speeds but it will also be comfortable out there this time. Should be around 50* to start with a high of 70*.

you guys have fun. if i felt confident in my car i would make the 2.5 hour trip to join you. but after my last race at whp with the car veering left into the speed sensor cone on the big end i have concerns. i think i have all fixed as there was a loose bolt on one of rear adjustable toe rods. but until i get a solid quarter mile run done i am not doing the half a mile. give them hell old man, marc. my 61 yr old bones are rooting for you.
