Default Radix appears to be working....

Coming back from Earl's in Long Beach yesterday (getting stainless steel brake lines installed), stopped at a friend's place in Oceanside....

Left this friend's place around 10PM...stopped for gas at the Chevron off Jefferson at Hwy 78, saw a Saleen Mustang at the pump next to me. Told him I liked his car, asked him what he had in it (291?), found out he didn't have a blower, then told him I could probably run him then. He said, "Huh?" I said, "Yeah, I could give you a run for your money..." He asked me what I had, I said a blower.

He kind of shrugged, so I didn't pursue it any further, but as I left the Chevron, I gunned it and the *** end swung around like an amusement park ride. I was laying rubber the whole f-in time. Totally, and I mean TOTALLY out of control. Scared the **** out of me. As I drove past them again to get on the freeway (about 5-6 Mustangs in the Chevron parking lot), they were completely silent, staring at my truck like they were watching bigfoot or something.



Thanks to Brian & Devin for helping me get this thing running right!

No it wasn't Bigfoot, They just got hit by an Avalanche. That's to cool.

Sweet. I can only imagine that, "Whaaaaaauuuuuuuh" noise really adding to it.

I really-really miss two wheel drive.
