It's a work of art! :D

The trap doors. :D

A BIG "THANK YOU" TO Shamu!


For the AM Perf. oil pan.


:tiphat: :happydance: :excited::bowdown: :tup:

Mmm. Nom nom

sweet build

:hello:

I was going to do a trackday today. But because of the damage I did last weekend to my Power Wagon tires. I had to cancel the trackday. I have to get 2 tires for the Power Wagon. One of them has a hole in the sidewall big enough to put your hand in it. And the other has some of the knobs ripped off deep enough to see the cords in the belt. So my money has to be spent on truck tires instead of trackday. :shakes head:

Well, the day wasn't a total lost. I did get the AM Perf. oil pan installed. :tup:

Got the issues fixed with downloading pictures from my cameras to the computer. Damn missing drivers! :mad: So here are a couple of pictures of my AM Perf. oil pan installed. :D

1st. pic. The AAM oil pan spacer.
2nd pic. The stock oil pick-up tube with the AAM spacer.
3rd pic. Another shot of it.
4th pic. The AM Perf. pan. It uses a modded stock oil pick-up tube.

Did a trackday today. :D Still down loading video's. BUT, I got this one of a real GT40. The owner refused to tell us on what he paid for it. From what I got. The car was built in England. The owner was scared to drive it. He ran in Group 1 with an instructor.

Also had one of these. :D

A real real original GT40, or you mean one of the remakes? (I hate to call them replicas, because they're made from the exact original plans with a few minor improvements and modern-ish parts, so they're nothing like typical crappy kit cars). The real ones are so rare I'd be shocked to see anyone actually drive them on a track. (But then again if I were rich enough to acquire one, that's totally what I would do with it).

It's the real thing. :yum: Seen the data plate on it. Couldn't see all of the info on it. Had ford on it. Everyone was :yum: over it. He was driving in the beginners group. He wasn't pushing it, that's for sure.

Man that's amazing. Wikipedia says only 107 were ever built (and that's all of the submodels combined over the few years it was made). I'm not even sure how many still exist in working condition, but they're all worth a fortune.

I know. It got to be worth about a mil! Looking at it. You can tell that this was a race car at one time. One thing I notice was that the knock-off hub nuts was safety wired, and some other stuff that I seen on it.

:drool: that GT40 its a dream car dude!!! thanks for share with us :tup:

A little music for the ears. :D Have the sound turned up. :D

added to my watch later list on youtube :p BTW thanks for the friend request :)

The sound is amazing :tup:

Another video. :D This one is longer.

Last run of the day. I had replaced the battery in the GoPro, but forgot to plug the mike back in. :shakes head: I knew my rear tires were going away. The rear was slipping around a little. Coming out of T6. Had a big slide. From that point on. I decided to back off a bit. Good thing I did. When I got back in the pits. I checked my tires. I had corded the inside of the right rear tire. :shakes head: :icon14: Ordering 2 new rear tires tomorrow. 325/30-19 PSS's. The fronts are still good. Also removing the rear Hotchkis bar and putting the stock rear bar back on.

In the video. At the 3:30 mark. Coming out of T6, is my slide. It don't look like much. But I had a vacuum on the seat.

Cool vids. Just curious Rusty, why are you swapping your sways back to oem?

The rear Hotchkis bar makes the Z tail happy. It's too stiff on the softest setting. Trying to get the balance back in the Z. Also changing the alignment in the rear. Going to change the camber from -1.75 to -1.5. Trying the keep the inside tire flatter on the ground.

damn Rusty love the sound of your Z exhaust lool :tup:

Looks like a lot of fun :tup:

Changed rear tires. Went from 325/30-19 PSS's to 345/30-19 PSS's. :D The rear tires have 10 trackdays on them and about 8,000 miles. On my last trackday. The rear end got tail happy. I can see why. I corded the inside of the right rear tire. On the left side. I was just starting to get to the cords.

The 325 vs the 345's. :D

345's on the Nismo. :D

Forgot. Got rid of the 38' motorhome with the V10 ferb engine.

Meaty!

Replaced it with a 41' motorhome with a Cummins diesel. :D Pic's coming tomorrow.

damn those tires are huge :drool:

My new home away from home. :D What I paid for this. I could of had a 458 Ferrari.

Outside.

4 TV's, one of them is outside. Slide out kitchen on the right side, with gas grille. Washer/dryer combo. Queen size, sleep number bed with duet remotes for each side. Can tow 10,000 lbs.


Inside.

That's a big azz RV. Looks really nice. I think I would have jumped into a Ferrari though!

Well...........you would have to talk to the wife on the 458.

I like the RV! I can see you using that to pull the Z around the country to different track events. That would be the life!

Yeah, that's plan. :D Trailer the Z. When not taking the Z, flat tow the Jeep GC, or my Power Wagon. :D

Damn. I was beaten... was going to say "but then you wouldn't have anything to tow the ferrari with" :)

Are you retired/retiring soon? If so you are doing it right my friend!

:tup: 18 months, maybe sooner, maybe alittle later. :D Depends on the sell of where I work at. If the new company sucks, sooner. If everything stays the same, 18 months. If they make me an offer that is good, alittle later. :D Got ALL of my hobbies for retirement ready. Motorcycles, guns, motorhome, sports car, off-road truck, most everything is paid off, trophy wife. :tup:

is the trophy wife paid off?:roflpuke2:
