The new shifter sounds like it is working out great. Any changes planned for the LS motor?

Hoping for some nice weather with out salt and calcium chloride on the roads. Calcium chloride is just bad, bad, bad, very hard to wash off, eats up everything.
Want to get the truck out and do some driving. Out grandson, living with us going to school here, loves driving it too.

Your latest photo, looks really nice, rear image of truck is outstanding.

Signed up for a road course day of fun in late April at the motor sports park in Bowling Green KY.
The course is about 3.6 miles in length. It is a touring type day, however, top speed of a little over120 mph on front straight away. Take it pretty easy on the brakes, let off early, so as not to get them to hot.

Did the same event last year, lots of fun, it is a technical course most of the time. Going into the turns, usually can not see the exit, so need to drive on memory of turn. There is a big sink hole curve on the course, you can not see going into it. All you can see is the track dropping out of sight. Very strange feeling going down into it. However, a blast coming up out of it in a curve, hammer down. One of the few place you can go WOT going into and through the turn. Drive something a little faster then the red truck.
