ThunderCat Day 2014 - Aug. 23 Reply #18 – July 29, 2014, 08:01:44 PM I'll be there too, but the Bird will be sitting it out again. It had a little smoke fest in the wire harness under the blower and my focus has been on prepping the Mustang for Drag Week. So I'll likely bring my work car (it's not domestic or usually welcomed in the gear head world, so no judgments that I don't qualify as a gear head!). Any way, It'll be great to have a chance to see everyone. Mark Quote Selected

Unfortunately since finally getting the rear main addressed and the roll bar installed, electrical gremlins have haunted it. The good news: The cripsy circuit is now easy to find. The bad news: Extensive relocation and rewiring is necessary to ensure a minimal of issues in the future.I do have a running project car though. And it will make a trip down to Greg's in September when we all take off for Drag Week (it starts in Tulsa this year). I recently completed a ~650 mile shake down run and had no mechanical issues, though I came back with a list of items to improve the comfort, reliablity and (hopefully) quickness. Sorry for the huge pics... The time slip was the second test & tune. Hope to have a few more sessions for additional tweaks. Quote Selected
ThunderCat Day 2014 - Aug. 23 Reply #24 – August 10, 2014, 10:50:37 PM OK Folks. Sorry for being so far behind the power ball. I have been working on a deal with a local Ford Dealership. The long and short of it is that I have joined their dealership with my son. We are currently moving the dyno and shop equipment to the new shop. The dyno day will still be on as planned, just we will be at the dealership. Here is the new address it is located only 10miles from the old shop Champion Ford Reo 3078 West State Route 66 Rockport,In 47635 Quote Selected

ThunderCat Day 2014 - Aug. 23 Reply #28 – August 12, 2014, 11:01:05 PM Just wanted to chime in - I thoroughly enjoyed my DynoDay (weekend) experience last summer, but won't be making it this time, as I report back for duty (work) on August 18th this year. Afraid I'm bit too far away for road trip right before the kids show up for the first day of school on the 25th. Y'all try to have fun without me, if that's even possible! Quote Selected
