That sucks. Hopefully you'll get in under the powertrain. I just saw they arrested a guy at Sea World for blowing a seal.

On my first test drive, I goosed it a little while rolling down the driveway, and was quite surprised by some parallel tire marks that I previously could not do. Must have for V6 automatics, but V8 users where singing praises, too! I still think a tune is in order to address shifting and efficiency (soot production?). Also, it is as easily removed in minutes as it is to install, leaving nothing to void your warranty.

I put one of the VTC units on my car just before I put it away for the winter. I was being held back from advancing during my track days by not being able to heel/toe downshift. I thought I was blipping the throttle but I wasn't getting any response.
My first time driving the car with the unit set on 5 or 6 I would heel/toe and get a throttle blip. Looks like my problem was the built in lag and it was definitely eliminated by the throttle controller. I'll know more after I get some track days this year, but so far so good. I highly recommend this controller. My understanding is you can not eliminate the lag with a tune.

I'd like to join you guys at WGI for opening weekend next week but I 'm not going to have my car ready. Many projects to finish before I track for the first time this year.
Working on building Tank Plates and a Harness Bar to mount six point harnesses in the car. Tank Plates are done except for paint. Harness bar is about half done.
Also have the ACS Z/28 style spoiler and a Z/28 Wickerbill to install as well as an ACS TL1 Hood Vent in the spare 1LE hood I acquired last fall. I also have a ZL1 belly pan, Remote oil filter, oil cooler and accusump to install.
Today I picked up a complete Z/28 Torsen Differential and the cooler lines to hookup the Diff cooler into the Transmission Cooling System. A Z/28 Design Engineer I got to talk to last December highly recommended the Z/28 Diff for tracking the car. I also need to come up with a bigger front splitter to offset the new rear spoiler.
Knee surgery in January kind of slowed me down until recently, so now I've got a lot of catching up to do.
Have fun.

Andy, How long does it take from Warners? I don't remember, old age ?

I was thinking meet at Warners about 07:45 and leave about 08:00. Tell me if we need to start earlier to be there by 10:00 so we have time to sign in and all that Cause the run is at 10:30.
