Good to hear you had a decent time Mike.

I for one owe Angelo dinner or something, he and I finally finished the install of my pyro last night, and when I say that we did it, I mean he did the install, I connected the wires and put on the heat shrink.
Seems like I am seeing lower numbers than I had expected with the Predator on there, not certain though... Off to reroute and clean up some wiring and work on laundry day

I would almost bet that Angelo would be interested in that idea. what time would you be heading that way? Is there an event going on, or just another night of racin?

Friday night sounds like fun, even though I have to take the Mt. Olive police test the next day. I am a possible.

Took the new quad and headed up to western PA for a little riding/relaxing. Had an awesome weekened weatherwise and the quad performed flawlessly. Was walking through some pretty deep mudholes up on the property. We left today, and as soon as we got onto I-80, I got to meet one of Pennsylvania's finest. Got pulled over because of my window tint, even though I passed him in the median at about 75MPH. Didn't get a ticket, but I bet he was just checking up on me. I guess I looked "suspicious" with my Jersey plates, quad in the bed, camping gear, ugly face, yada yada yada....... This is not bashing the PA State Police at all, the trooper was super nice and polite to me and my g/f and future mother-in-law.

Anyhow, one of these years I will make the seafood feast. Sounds like a good time and it it really isn't that far away.

Nobody has said anything about time yet... soooo what time was it again

Angelo, I didn't have time to check into it, but brother says he probably has the socket you needed. Forgot to ask about one of the "laser" thermometer deals though. Anybody got one?

Tonight after work, flipped the puck up to the 50 position, that seemed to make the pyro needle a little more jumpy. Got hotter, but still didn't see anything near 1200* maybe next time I will feel so froggy as to try 90

Gates open at 6:30 close at 10 or 10:30.

Pat, I'm working on getting my hands on one of the new Snap-On digital torque wrenches with the right socket attached. I will let you know.
Are you thinking about stopping out on Friday night?

Yeah I would be up for taking a ride, but my sucky job usually has me until about 7 Friday night. probably landing me down there @ 8:30 assuming good traffic
I can try to leave a little early, but it would still only be like 6:30 or so

I think I might try to pick the next part to attack this death wobble garbage; hopefully one of these steps will lead to success. Not interested in removing the leveling kit, too stubborn. Right now, pondering a decent stabilizer setup or maybe one of the adjustable trac bars. gotta do some reading though, never got into them before. I might eveb try a drop pitman arm to get the steering angles back closer to stock.

Either of you 3rd gen fellas have a leveling kit and want to take alook at your truck quick for me? My question is: at the base of the pitman arm, is the tie rod mounting the arm from above or below. Angelos and my brothers are both stock, and the tie rod stud goes down through the arm. Mine however has the stud going up through the arm. Wasn't sure if this is just a "step" of the leveling kit or something I need to address
