Congrats speedster. Your patience in this has been amazing. I don't post often but I follow your build daily. Congrats on the beast being alive. Hopefully one day I'll get to meet most of you guys and gals at camaro fest. Can't go this year since I am starting the police academy

Thanks for the kind words. Appreciate you stopping by.

Great to hear that you are going to the police academy. Many of my friends are officers. It can be a tough profession, but very rewarding too.

Next week they are going to make the SST pretty again. There will be some studio shots and then some videos for NRE. No high boost stuff until I can get out there, but the lowest boost setting is around 880 hp so there should still be a little tire smoke...

Enough to justify stock investments in rubber manufacturing. LOL

Are you cruising in Pumpkin yet ?

Have you installed the updated SST diff ?

Not yet, but Pumpkin is scheduled to be insured the 30th for a 31st Meet and Greet/Cruise. Were having an extended winter up here, weather is sucking big time.

Diff is done ready to be installed, but probably not til mid April. Hoist is kind of tied up til then.

Wow. Would have thought weather would be amazing up there these days. You're quite a bit SE of Van. Is it because closer to the mountains?
