I went to the track the other day and found that both my air bags had holes in them. I never thought much of them to tell you the truth but without them I could not hook the car to save my life. I started with MT drag radials that usually hook great for me and spun them bad. I even put slicks...

Tonight I put on a new brake accumulator and when I turned the key on, the pump never would stop and it made lots of noise. I tried it 4 or 5 times in 20 sec intervals. I thought that I read on here before to crack the line open that is directly below it if this happens, so I did and this is...
