Good morning everyone!
Thanks for starting the blog BumMike!
Looks like a rainy day here. Wanted to get the car looking good for this weekend. Have 2 shows and a cruise in to go to! Going to have to wake up early Saturday and clean Monte up.

Hi `Devin,
Your new looking S.S. is getting so nice that you are going to have to invest in a new enclosed trailer + a tow vehicle
I hope that Mother Nature changes her mind & gives you sunshine & clear roads. (Sadly, I wish she could send the rain to California & the states that have bad fires

I also hope that you start posting the MCF Weather, I know that the member's miss it & I know that I enjoy seeing it ?

Wish U & Member's a Super Friday & WeekEnd > EnJoy

MCF Blog `Vid of the Day

The 2014 Chevy Camaro Z/28 has wowed the world with its track-rated performance, but to date, we haven’t seen one cross the dyno to verify what the 7.0-liter LS7 under the hood is really putting out. That has now changed thanks to Redline Motorsports.
MUST SEE: Big Block Smart Car Pulls Wheelies, Sounds Like The Apocalypse: Video
Skip past the one-minute mark to get to the dyno action, then listen to the big V-8 as it spins up the roller on its way to one heck of a photogenic set of curves.

With torque nearly flat from 2,500 rpm to redline and horsepower that builds like a tsunami, the figures show the rated 505-horsepower is perhaps a bit conservative, as this dyne run pulled 455 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque at the wheels.

That’s just 10% drivetrain loss if the rated 505 horsepower at the crank is correct. The torque figure likewise reflects either rather small drivetrain losses or a slight underrating of the engine, with just 13% of the 481 pound-feet of torque at the crank lost on its way to the wheels.
Oh `No > I better get outa here > >LOL

Mornin guys. Devin, did you figure out your issue?

We get tomorrow off because of the company picnic. I figure I'll go for kicks just to see what's out there (and free food). Plus I'm curious as to what the cute HR lady looks like when she's not having to wear business attire. I'll have the Z28 out anyway, so I'll swing by.

Wow that Z/28 is awesome!!

Drew, I took a peak and didn't see much with the wires i checked. It hasn't done it since that one day so it must be somewhere i can't get too. unfortunately ill probablly have to take it to a dealer.
Hope all is well with you man!
