I didn't get the car down to 2,500#. They did.

Ok, Mark saw my post and has corrected me. He tells me the Boss block is an additional 45# or so from the std. block. So that puts the car somewhere in the range of just under 2,600# I have plans to remove an additional 50 or so (give or take) so at this point it's a wait and see game. I've learned long ago that you can't rush these things. Rushing stuff always has a way of biting you in the ass.

The car will need some shaking down and tuning so a Road Atlanta trip next year is undecided at this point. I AM going to Road Atlanta. I just don't know when.

Brakes? I don't think this car will need much braking.

Stay tuned. As soon as I know something I'll update the thread.
