    Racing in overdrive??

    Hello All, my car is pretty mild as I just have a pte 6266, 3000 stall, 110 race gas and drag radials. When I have a potential race on the street, I just leave it in OD and let her rip. I never really thought much about it because it will downshift when needed when roll racing and it will go...

    Front Suspension rebuild??

    Ok, so I bought some front springs for the car from Kirbans and debating If I want to tackle that myself or not. I called a local shop and asked what the cost would be for them to put them in, they came back with $250. That sounds pretty reasonable to me. Then I was discussing this with a...

    Desert sunrise

    This was taken with my canon 20D on a tripod. Took a couple of exposures, one really dark to preserve the sunrise and the other one really bright to bring out the car and then I merged the two together in photoshop. I'm not the best when it comes to photoshop so I had some issues with the blending.
