Just got off the phone with Brad Mayeur and my 3.0L powered Racecar LIVES (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Its been a while in the works. The first /6 engine had oil issues so I upgraded to the 3.0L (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) So Moby (racecars name) lives. Brad & Michael are working out a few small issues, but it lives! Hopefully I can bring Moby home this week.

The day I bought it in Nov 07

Our first AX is This Sunday the 26th, but Moby won't make that one. I still need to get tires and such plus I am traveling for work the next two days. First event is planned to be May 3rd at the Tire rack in South Bend if the weather is good. If not then it will be May16th tire rack with PCA and for sure rain or shine May 23rd & 24th with INR at our NEW location at the Majestic Star Casino.

For this Sunday I will be running my Orange car.

I am not 100% sure yet. For now I have a good used set of 225 50 15 Hoosiers, but I know I will need bigger just not sure what size yet. I need to drive a bit to get the feel before I go an drop more $$ on tires.
