Congrats Tom!!!!!

Look forward to seeing you and the CC at Laguna.

so how many times did you stall it moving around your driveway?? that triple disc takes some getting used to at slow speed launch

Lots to learn and Lance, Ben and I will be happy to help, and Lance and I can help you with the sequential. We all can tell you all the stuff you'll need too

Have you figured out checking the oil is now a 2 man job??? Take care and best wishes!!! Mike

Thanks guys,

Ross actually had a oil dip stick he made for checking the dry sump tank, and I accidentally left it at the trailer where all the extras were stored. I hope to get it from him at some point.

Yes on stall, lol...That baby doesn't engage until the very very end. The Emco is going to take quite a bit of relearning, for sure.

Where is your dry sump tank located? In the footwell?

It appears that that is my original Comp Coupe ordered from Dodge. Car went to Canada when we sold it.

Tom, what I was trying to say is that you need to pull off the hood to check the oil, and I wouldn't try to take it off by myself unless the car was on fire!!!

The clutch will get easier with time to navigate at slow speeds. Ben saw Ross move my car at his shop and he was so smooth it was like an auto trans!! 1st time with mine at the track, I just keep looking at the Motec to figure out what gear I was in

Cobra, I was thinking of you as Steve started posting about his journey. Before you put another $10-$20k into your ACR you should strongly consider a CC if all your doing is tracking. Handles so much better, as fast in a straight line with my 514 rwhp vs. my old 605. Plus, so much safer!! Your ACR is fast, too fast to be protected by a street car set up!!

Great find Steve!! I figured that was from close to delivery. I see Dan wrote a post to confirm. Nice to have documentation that old!!

I see what you meant now Mike. I have already taken it off by myself a few times, no problem when your knuckles drag. lol
