It is. I love the color. It always looks clean, and even better when it's actually cleaned.

Agreed, its a bad ass color especially with the black rims, grill and emblems.

So one of the cars on my list as a replacement for the Cadillac has been a Charger Hellcat. Up until I saw that (Destroyer Grey) in person as it came at me, my choices were the Medium Indigo Blue or the darker "Jazz Blue". But if a DG one is in my wheel house, I'm digging it.

You can’t go wrong with either of those 3.

Yeah Jegs decided it was a good idea to build draglites look a likes where you need spline cone seat lug nuts, they were cheap so idgaf lol

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

Those have to be one piece billet centers for cone seats to work I would think..

But they are usually 2 face stampings with a spacer in between. And that's why you end up having to use the shank lugs to clamp it all together.

Saw it at Wauconda cruise night ?

I actually hadn't seen it in person since SEMA of 2018 so it was cool that it was back in the shop.

RS is going to be bringing some cars to the next cruise nights in August.

Drivin through West Chicago and figured id stop and try and get a picture of FiFi the b29 that was at Dupage Airport... they really block that thing off and try and get you to spend money to get in and see it. Can barely see that and the B24 thats next to it.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Yea. They are very gestapo there even on non-event days.

If you go back to the south from where you are parked (by the fire department in your pic), past that small parking lot, there is a road that goes under the flight center. Off that road is a spur that runs up to an access gate. So if planes are on the south tarmac, you can see them.

New to me rims and tires

 

[alexd]

Union Grove 6/27/2023. The nice thing about GT-Rs is that from a distance, you can't tell the year. Mine is over 12 years old.
I was hoping with new turbos, upgraded trans, and better tires to run in the low 9's at maybe 154 or so. That was not to be; the strip was terrible (other people were also complaining).
At my lowest boost on a 93 octane MAP, I had to let off the gas twice to pull a 10.1 at 139. At way less power and worse configuration in the past (at Byron) I was always around 9.6 to 9.7 at 148 to 149. So, maybe this is my last dragstrip test; I can't meet the requirements at Byron and Union Grove is too sloppy. I would post a few videos including from my helmet camera, but they are too long...

For your helmet videos, upload to YouTube, set the privacy to "Unlisted", and copy/paste the link to TCG.

Thanks. It has been a long time since I've done that; I tried it just now and YouTube didn't send up the "page" where I could select my file..so no upload to it.
Not sure why...

Anyway, here's one that I DID send to YouTube quite a while back, let's try it:

The situation here was that I don't race anyone and had no idea who was in the other lane. I just Test and Tune. Anyway, while I wanted to build up a little boost befoire launching, the guy thought that he would blow me off and red-lights with a several car-length start. I didn't like that so I started quickly with the light and"reeled him in" a little
beyond the 1/8th mile. Final time was a 10.2 for him and a slow 9.85 for me. 900 WHP at the time as an Alpha 9. Byron
