Yes, C4. Thanks

I did not do anything with my Trans Am today because I don't have a Trans Am.
Looked at it sitting in the garage.
Drove it to town with the track tires on it for gas. Put it up in the air and swapped to the lowest LCA mounting hole for the track this weekend. Polished my exhaust tips.
Contemplated putting her away for the winter and starting the projects I have planned.
I've got a major oil leak from somewhere. I thought it was the oil pan, but after replacing that, it's still dripping. I think it's a valve cover...damn these cars and their cowls.
Used my lathe to turn a spark plug anti-fouler into an O2 sender bung extension: http://www.ls1.com/forums/f9/exhaust...spacer-161026/ Trying to get my Innovate LC-1 A/F gauge to behave properly!
Opened the door, sat it in, then got the flashlight from the glove compartment and promised her I would use her Thursday to run pick up the wife from the airport and wash her before reaaaaal good!
Gave it a good bath yesterday ( that's why it's raining today ), took it out for a QUICK run up rte. 21 North to " blow the carbon out " of the chambers, :drivin:, stopped for a couple of containers of "hops and barley mix", went to the g/f's house, got on the computer for about 6 hours, passed out, watching it rain on my nice, (ex)-clean ride. :cuss:
Burned rubber, dropped the hammer at every other light for each gear needed and sped excessively. Pretty much drove like a dick, trolling anything. Haven't driven it in 3 weeks, so I had to make up for it.
Seems the less I drive it, the harder I'm on it.
I went for my usual Sunday Cruise (about 35 miles of block-to-block red lights). Pure pleasure with a 6 speed and 4.56 gears. Coming home I included the usual on-ramp where I blow the carbon off the plugs. That on ramp is about a mile of one lane without any merging traffic. I carelessly bounced off the rev limiter at 6.5K RPM while in 2nd gear. That pierced me deep in my heart. That rev-limiter really comes up fast with 4.56 gears.
Left it locked in the trailer at the track ready to go for next weekend!
You left you car at the track??
huh, interesting. Never heard of such a thing :)
Went a new PB of 12.28 @ 108. Followed by three consecutive 12.328 passes.
Full exhaust, Lid, 3.73's, Yank PT4000 convertor, Tubular K member, front lower a arms, LCA, LCA relocation brackets, getting to the ground through Weld Draglites with MT ET streets 275/60's
Hmmm. Maybe there is a little more in my car yet. What RPM do you launch at?
