A few pictures of this weekend's NMCA Hotchkis Autocross.

Ran all day Saturday with no issues, But Only got a three runs Sunday due to a blown out front shock. New suspension mods are now in the not-so-distant future.

Yeah they are Hotchkis shocks. I'm going to pull them and bring them in to work to have them swapped out. Made sure they weren't bottoming out. The shock leaked up through the top adjuster. They aren't exactly valved for the weight of the truck. Might have a set re-valved for the extra weight.

I have a question for you first i was looking on lmc and it looks like the manual column covers are the same as the newer s10s. Does that sound right?

second when you put the shifter on the floor how did you make the cluster change from park to drive or whatever? or is that changed by the ECM?
