Since my first trip to the track ive gotten a little spending bug in me!;)

Today, my drag radials came in. BF Goodrich G-force T/A 225/50 r15 on 15x6 steelies. These damn things are heavy! Id say they are a good 5lbs heavier than the stock wheel and tire combo. Took em' for a quick run around the block and could bearly break them loose with a brake torque.

A couple weeks ago I put on a 65mm billet TB from the 60*V6 store, no pics of that. Ive had a 3500 top end for a while now and finally im starting to piece together everything I need. Last week I got the gasket kit from GMPD, picked up some head bolts from napa today, waiting for my ported 3500 LIM to come in, and I need to get some exhaust studs from the dealer when I get a chance. About an hour ago I ordered a DHP powertuner with a friend and Im looking at widebands right now.
About a month ago I started a new job making near double what I was before and working 20 hours less a week. Ive got my own work vehicle now and my car barely gets driven. I filled up my tank today for the first time in 3 weeks:leg Best part of all of that is that I can have my car out of comission as long as needed.
