After 50 miles of sustained go fast, front shocks luke warm, rear shock so hot I couldnt touch the bodies or resiviors.  Puzzled on that one.   Wondering if nitrogen pressure needs to be checked more often, or rear air bumps are needed.


Brakes and steering still shitty

Gps is AWESOME again.

both o2 sensors smashed off

driver motor mount 80% material failure around welds.

skid vacated (not recovered from course)

rear pass shock needs looking at, ridding dirty



trans took 2.5 quarts after powerwashing to make truck move
motor took a quart of oil


2hours of power wash and she is ready for some lift time / wreck wheeling.

so sick of this fucking thing i want to be racing my other car.


chassis is broke clear in half on both sides where the sub meets the main rails, looks like its been slamming for a wile with a good beat 1/16" gap

Fawk me.


I can see what Balduci brothers build millers sub out of 188 wall chromolly sleved over solid aluminum.  redoncuoulus.  meh


motor mount area cut out and replaced, masive steel and 3/8"s gussets inplace on drivers side.

not happy about a couple loose ears / caps on the front end so that has to come all apart.  going to see if i can source some spicer joints today to have, and piece together some good shafts or put the RCV's in


fix front axle shaft situation
fix frame, gusset failure
make skid
put a new O2 on
prep the rest of the car
