Yeah, i'm happy to see it's not a cracked block, melted coolant passage on a head, or anything else expensive.

After seeing all the cobalts there I should have had a friend drive mine down so I could get some runs in. Your 113mph is moving!

That's good. Glad to hear you haven't uncovered anything catastrophic yet. How much is the track day gonna end up costing your stang? Howd you get home?

Yeahhh, the trap speed; she's okay .......

10% Ethanol FTL. I was Sunoco gas btw. Closest Shell was too far out of my way.

For studs, lock wire head gaskets, lower intake gaskets, coolant, oil, rtv, and other odds and ends will put me alittle under $400 for the day. Fran from RPM went back to his shop and got his trailer to get me home.

Not too bad all things considered. Could have been worse....

Good that he went back for you, saved you some $$$ right there!

car enjoys Shell better, nitrogen enriched helps it run cleaner and more powerful. I don't get as much observed KR which = better running car.

Well I was out of the loop on that one. I use Sunoco probably 80% of the time. The Shell by me is priced stupid-high

the Shell near my old place is about the same as the sunoco right next to it. Now that I moved, it's a little further away. No biggie though.

Thanks, I'm still hoping for better. 12.9 on a 2.268 60' FTL. I need to get it down to at LEAST a 2.1 to have anything good (12.7ish)
