Took the nova to the shop today on it's hooking problems and it was a mess.
Had it weighed which it weighed more than I thought.(3428) It now looks like this= LF1020)RF900)LR754)RR754) The rear-end was out by 9/16.The pinon was at 7 and now is at 4.Had to put a spacer in the drivers spring to get the car too set close to level in the front because of the pre-load it took to get the rear the same weight.At 1st the drivers side was 1 1/2 lower which I told him that won't work for me.It took them 6 1/2 hrs to get thing's right.Total bill was $311.71 which I thought was pretty good.Maybe I'll get it to hook up now.Thanks,Bill

Going to the track this weekend? I'm going tomorrow for last TNT before points start April 1, but its only the 1000ft track, best 1000ft time is 9.05, so I'm shooting for high 8's tomorrow.
