  1. Track Fun

    Some shots from the rather wet track at Wheels Int Lakes, whole morning was mix between bright sunshine and chucking it down 😆

    Lens: Tamron 18-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di III-A VC VXD on a Fujifilm X-T30

  2. Wheels Int Lakes

    Popped into the really great local car show, couldn't do aerial unfortunately due to weather but played dodge the rain to get ground shots.

    Very eclectic mix of cars giving a brilliant range to shoot.

    Lots more to come!

  3. I roughly measured the distance from the diff to the motor. Anyone know a sliding driveshaft that’s about 1520mm long? Or how to actually search for that? Anywhere I look just has search by make/model. Boosts appreciated.

  4. Also!! I met a very cool person today who told me about a VERY cool group I had never heard of.
    #driveDeviant is, in their own words, "a welcoming and inclusive community for car enthusiasts." It's national, but apparently we also have a NJ chapter!

    They're also on Bluesky:

    As I had already said: when I'd got back to my Hotel, there were a 1/2 dozen or so #CustomCars in the car park including eye catching this #Ford #V8 custom.

    My fun summer car. Lightly modified RX7.....
    550+ HP, 2635 lbs full fluids

    EVERYTHING was done by myself, except the machining of the block, because I lack the machine. haha. But, all welding, all engine rebuild, all planning for engine tolerances, etc, done by me. I absolutely love learning, and anyone can do whatever they put their mind to.

    Not only did I learn more about building a computer to run everything on the car, but I also learned how to tune it. Spark and fuel curves, all the idle parameters and adjustments for throttle in various areas, etc.

    Just an overall fun canyon carver. Amazing torsen lsd makes putting that power down sooo smooth in the corners.

    Mods:
    Megasquirt 3 ECU (built myself, tuned myself)
    Summit +2cc domed pistons w/ valve relief
    PRC 2.5 5.3L heads @ 58cc (valves: I:2.02",E:1.57")
    Dual valve springs, titanium retainers
    TSP 228R 112LSA
    Bore is 3.81 (.030 over)
    Block was decked down 0.004
    Eagle H-beam rods
    rotating assembly balanced
    JTR Longtube headers
    X-pipe
    Magnaflow something mufflers... haha
    LS6 intake manifold
    52# injectors
    DW 300 fuel pump
    dual feed / return fueling
    Aeromotive FPR
    Light weight flywheel, clutch and pressure plate upgrade, just don't remember what to...
    Ford 8.8 IRS with Torsen T2R LSD
    3.73 ratio on rear
    2006 GTO T56
    Stoptech rotors
    Hawk HP plus (I think) pads
    KYB AGX
    Racingbeat springs
