I took the car for a rinse off at the car wash today to get her cleaned up for her long winters nap....
On my way home, I got on her from a roll.... the tires started to break loose at the top of 2nd. Let off before I needed to shift to 3rd, and just smiled.
Never had that happen before. Fun times

Next years winter project 
Might have to wait until the weather gets nicer. Just got her cleaned up, and we are expecting 8" of snow tomorrow. She will be tucked away in the warm garage, haha.
Yeah man.... I used to always get the usual tire destruction from first to 2nd, but this was new, because it happened as the power was building at the top of 2nd, right before my shift point.
I love the new found power. You can feel it continue to swell all the way to 7500 rpm. The cams are really breathing now thanks to the ported head. Everything is working together nicely.

Thats awesome! Glad you got to go for a little rip before the snow hit. It was decent here yesterday afternoon before it got really cold again last night and I went WOT in 3rd from 70 and the tires just roasted...then I remembered I have studded tires on and it was still only 28* out lol

I can't wait to get some race gas in her.

Currently, she is wiped down and clean. Tire pressure jacked up a bit, and parked on carpets. Stabil in the tank. All I need to do is wax her, and throw the cover on.
I'll prob wait, because my new SS/TC's struts arrive today.

Technically she will sleep, but on nice winter days, I will take her for a nice country ride.

I am hoping for some of those nice winter days when I get mine together. At least I have my other one to drive to get my fix.

Ur lucky having two fun cars. My 98 cavalier winter beater is slow as *****, haha.
Nah, I already have SS/TC shocks, so I picked up the struts on amazon for like $165 shipped for the pair. I'm installing them with SS/TC springs I picked up on here cheap.
I'm currently on CM springs, and can't take slamming the pot holes anymore. The roads in NEPA are awful, and it makes driving a lowered car not fun.

I can't wait for the weather to clear up out here so that I can finally get my car together. I don't have camshafts but I'm hoping that with the other modifications and a tune that it will wake up nicely.
