Full rebuilt?? it says RPM level 6 in your signature?? is that what you had in the car or what you are going to get now??

I am staying same width I think but going with a little taller on 17x12 CCW wheels. should help a little. I will decide later since I will order the tires sometime tonight or tomorrow morning. there is also a big chance that I will just run my C5 18s since I am used to them. we will see how it goes. might try both sets. I dont know.

I am trying to decide what tires to get now. MTs or Hoosiers!!

Garth don't you love It that we're talking about you ?
Need to read my post better before hitting reply....

RPM tranny is working great, Street Slayer (RPS) clutch is working great and no problems at all with clutch hydrolic system ever since carbon triple clutch. Doesn't even seem to matter what the color of the hydrolic fluid is anymore (but I still bleed with Tick bleed system and larger Kawasaki reservoir). Just wish I had the new bell housing..... but would mean full rebuild.

It's here!

An old man once told me...

"This is not my car, I'm just lucky enough to take care of it for now."

That is how I feel about this one.







BABY TIRE SMOKE!!!!!!

Crap...now someone else has a nice fat hood and the same intake manifold I was going to buy over the winter.

Seriously though, congrats on one SUPER-COOL RIDE....and it's not IOM or RED. lol
The good news is now I know that my hood should clear.

Looks awesome Ross! I suppose you have the trailer already? Open or enclosed? Love the stance - looks ready for launch countdown



... and oh, no plans for rollbar for me - at least for now. Just gotta be careful what I do and when.

Thanks guys.

I will be in Pueblo next Saturday or Sunday to run it. They are going to run on the day that looks best.

Yep, enclosed trailer. The only ways to go. It road all 20 hours and 1300miles non stop to get home. It was a long day.

My buddy Trent from CPU will be doing the tuning for me.

Only two things will ever be changed on this car.

1. Tires

2. Tunes


It is hard to understand how nice this car is built. The fit and finish is second to none. I was truly expecting a more stripped down car that felt like a race car. The inside is more impressive to me then any street version gen 5 I have been in. I truly feel lucky to be a part of the cars history.

Right now it looks like we're on for Sunday in Pueblo. Weather will be low 50's instead of low 40's.

Sounds like fun, assuming it's not snowing here and we can get there, but I am tentatively scheduled for a trip to the desert again, so no go for me.
