Shot me a PM when you’re headed to Cayuga and Toronto Motorsport drag strip, I’ll come out and see what you’re up to!

will do! I still have to do a few small things but it’s basically ready. Ordering a gps speedometer adapter tonight and looking at some wiring tomorrow. Still need to either burn a half tank or power the pump with the fuel line draining into a bucket. Almost there though

Can you use the electric water pump to regulate the temperature? Seems like a better 21st century solution than the archaic wax-filled contraption we call a thermostat.

i do time attack and drags at the local tracks. The tow hook will definitely come in handy when the day comes. I just put a tow strap on my turbo ls c4 as well
