Made it back to the track, 2 time since the solid axle. Added the ARB and swapped coilovers/struts up front. Still sorting out some stuff but Im pretty sure the car has 9.50's in it next time out. Going straight as hell now
I'll settle for a 9.66 @ 144.7 for now out of a rather basic...
Finally got around to making some passes on an unprepped track with the solid axle swap. Looking forward to making hits on a prepped track suspension tweaked along with the ARB install. Need to clean up my driving...was definitely impressed pulling a 1.43 60' on an un prepped surface.

Finally got this new combo sorted out after some LONG downtime, about 4 years after loosing an oil pump. Fairly basic combo, Teksid 9:1, Stock Heads, Comp 3 cams, 6 speed, IRS, and KB 2.8H.
1st weekend netted a new best ET & MPH of 9.82 @ 142.6, car was on 23-24psi, and my driving was...
Made some changes from last weekend, and the car responded bigtime. Went down to 12psi in the tires from 15. Airbags from 11psi to 5psi each side, and went from a 8.2" lower pulley, to a 8.4" lower pulley adding 2psi for a total of 26psi.
Had some suspect blowout on the tr6's so I went with...
Just wanted to throw this out there with my experience. There seems to be alot of questions on exhaust size from LT's to Catbacks thrown around. Recently got my new combo together, no dyno #'s yet. Its fairly simple.
Ran [email protected] last weekend, on a fairly conservative tuneup, and...
Finally got all my ducks in a row after the long build, long winter, and all the minor details and issues sorted out. I told myself I wouldn't run this car and just enjoy it.. Well, that didn't last long.........
Teksid 9:1, Comp 3's, Stock heads untouched 4 thread heads with Tooley Springs...

Finally finishing everything up with the build on the new motor. Ditched the Race bullets with turndowns, and went with Stingers after encountering a good deal. No issues with the install. ARH 1-3/4 x 3" headers, 3" Xpipe all way to the ball connector which is 2.5, fitment is both awesome...
Selling a custom icebox which were made in limited runs back 2005 or so, and were sold thru the forums. I used this with great success and acquired another back in 2012, and never used it. It will hold more ice, and water than any underhood icebox out there, and is a great alternative to the...
Fired up the new build. 9:1 Teksid, 2.8H, Cams, ARH 1-3/4 x 3"....
After lots of offtime, two back to back deployments in 13/14, and taking up a primary hobby of downhill mountain biking I was able to finally get my motor together over the past couple of weeks, and get it fired up. S

Comp 106500 grinds. 242/240 .475/.450 -- 114 LSA
Decided to go a different way with my build and these cams needs to go. I picked them up used, less than 1000 miles of usage from previous owner and never installed in my combo.
I had them studded with ARP studs (no more broken cam bolts) by a...
Some GoPro footage, and other shots from riding here in Alaska, and BC. Nothing crazy, just got bored pieced it together with some music.

Trying to see if anyone is running these grinds. I have a set, picked them on a good deal, but I am contemplating on putting them in my new combo or sticking with some milder like the stockers which have worked well.
Just wanting to see if anyone has an reports/results to report about...
Been kind of quiet for a lil while with the car, over a year ago in August '11 I had a brand new OEM cobra pump let loose on my car after being in my forged shortblock for about 9k miles and 2.5 years. Still not sure of the culprit but it was a 100% failure. Not much was salvageable from...
Anybody have winter hobbies in here?
Living in Alaska its a part of daily life from late October to May, and even later in the mountains. Lots of love for the cobra, but its good to have other venues to escape to.
Last year I rode my snowmobile from October 15th, into mid June. Awesome...
Made my annual trip to Whistler, British Columbia for Downhill mountain biking last week. Was rewarded with the usual awesome weather and sick riding. Cant wait to get back as always.
This passion/sport is the only thing that makes me think of getting rid of my cobra and doing more of this...
Been posting up random vids over the winter of riding here in Alaska. The area we like to hit experienced a signifigant amount of snowfall during last week, might be a record breaker.
From Wednesday morning to Friday afternoon they recieved 55-60" of new fresh snow. This was on top of...
Just another awesome winter in Alaska....we are making up for the shitty winter out west with a record breaker so far. Riding a '12 Pro RMK Assault 155
Gotta love mid week rides, couple million acres of the best terrain in the world to yourself and a couple of buddies.
Flats on a...
When all you people start postin personal best down "south" I figure its time to watch the snow fly up here in AK. Wife finally OK'd a new purchase. Picked up my new winter toy last week, decided it was time for an upgrade from my 06 MXZ-X 800 136, wife now inherits that sled.
2012...
