In Excess

Sorry the windshield is so dirty, just had to wing it today

NASCAR race today 

We keep our weight # lower than our hp # to make things more interesting, guess that’s why I have about a 3 second attention span though 

5 year old mix breed from shelter, she goes to work with us everyday, goes to our races, goes to nhra races, goes to Vegas. She goes everywhere. The picture in the bed is at a hotel in Missouri on a race trip.

I see one of my palm trees snapped in two from the winds today, 10” diameter tree. Wind was blowing straight towards shop doors today, was flexing roll up doors almost a foot into the shop. Never seen anything like the winds we had today

Track day at chuckwalla valley raceway. 

I have yet to have a bad day at the track, some days just cost more than others

Why do all BMW nerds refer to their car by Exx instead of what's on the trunk lid, like everyone else?

Not all of them do that, they also have Fxx cars

What I can’t believe is that I don’t have any other pictures.

2021 M5 competition, pretty impressive car honestly 11 second 1/4 mile@ 130mph. 198mph straight off the showroom. Not too bad for such a heavy car.

Not familiar with a High country , I assume it's a diesel 4 door ??

Crew cab long bed diesel, pretty much everything imaginable on this truck.

I kind of forgot what I ordered, I think this was ordered 9-10 months ago.

the plan for the past 5 years was two trucks and two trailers at every race in order to get both cars to track, fast forward to now we decided to sell both trailers and one of the trucks and buy a toter and 40’ liftgate stacker.

im not out a penny on this, just trying to get someone an opportunity of a loaded truck before it arrives this month and is sold 

86k 

I ordered this truck earlier this year, white pearl paint, black leather, every option, may or may not have sunroof though. It’s brand new on way to dealer if anybody is interested send me a message so I can send you to dealer. I’m not out anything just trying to give someone the opportunity to get a new bad ass truck immediately.

This is affecting the cities as well.

jaws of life and other brands of rescue tools are now battery operated.

two cities in so cal have electric fire trucks being built, the first one will arrive first quarter of 2022, should be pretty fun to deal with

Do they have a dyno for that kind of clutch? 

We had a hell of a time getting consistent harnesses.  Iirc Bonifonte was the only one that was consistent and even close to the Rockwell we ordered. 

 

Fortunately yes we were able to get discs that were close. We have them in our log book which is not in front of me now. A couple of points apart. The discs we got are probably pre covid, we run a 9” and most v8’s are on a 10” clutch, not as much demand for these.

changed 3 of 6 arms, changed the cups, changed from 5135 to 5191 discs. Set it up as a baseline of 23 grams per arm.

our last pass last year had zero weight, and could not get enough slip. Wear was only .003. We ended up hurting motor because of it

Going through the clutch tomorrow, new discs, new floater, change the arms and add some weight , wholesale changes

Saturday March 5th in vendors. More info will start being posted by end of month I’m sure

Sold my warrior on there, a few friends have sold a few things on there as well

Trying to find a stacker trailer, can’t find one in decent shape anywhere that fits our needs

Looking for a clean 38-40’ gooseneck stacker.

if liftgate must be 40’ and prefer hydraulic

38 must be a 4 post lift

must have air ride

electric over hydraulic brakes

12.5 diesel gen

Must be clean inside and out, will travel anywhere in country for right trailer

Hp is nothing compared to the torque you got going on right there

And? What is it?

(BTW, Greg, whatever it is, congrats!)

New renegade toter. 600hp, 12 speed amt, twin screw.

unfortunately we don’t have an rv this year, going to be a weird year with odd desert trips and hotels during racing season

Was thinking about Hp, I have over 5000 in my garages. Bought another 600 today, delivery next year 

Version 2.0, rough weekend
