I have not but I will. Thanks for the tip.

Thanks. I found them on Amazon. Their stuff is called Trailer Trash.

Does anyone know the name of the vendor at the show that is selling aluminum trailer storage shelves and racks? Their stuff looked like good quality but now I can’t remember their name. I went through the vendor list but they must have a different company name. They said they are on Amazon but I...

Looking for a Whipple 4.5 for a new LS7 build. Apparently Whipple is having issues with their foundry and is rejecting the castings and thus is unable to deliver. Currently no credible delivery date that we’ve heard from Whipple. If anyone has one or knows where there might be one, please send...

Just left the show. They should rename it to the Side by Side Super Show. I was surprised how crowded it was. I was also surprised that literally nobody was looking at the Speed SxS booth. I got to spend some quality time with Grant and Chad finalizing some details for my Funco build which was...

Varies widely depending on quality of build, type of material and options you choose. I just had a 26’ Intech wide body built. They are arguably one of the best builders today but you pay for it. I got quotes from others for steel trailers and they were only about 15% less so I went for the...

Maybe this guy would consider trading down to take some cash off the table? Don’t know him or anything about it, just saw the ad. https://classifieds.race-dezert.com/FOR-SALE:2021-2-Seat-Alumicraft-Race-Car--211952

Tanks are aluminum I believe. I’ll take a look at them. I think I recall seeing a label on them from whoever makes them . I don’t think they are made in-house by Intech. I’ve had trailers with E-track and L-track. I prefer the L-track. Easier to clean as you noted. And I prefer the thinner width...

Here’s my new Intech I just got. Dual 40 gal fuel tanks.

Great looking stuff! Always good to see people starting their own business. Best of luck to Ryan and the Explicit team! So that's at least two former Alumicraft folks that have started new shops. Brian Scarborough (sp?)started Podium Fabrication. I vetted Podium when I was deciding on a builder...

Curious why you are switching from the HP to the Dominator? My understanding is the only real difference is if you need more then 8 i/o's or multiple O2 sensors. I'm certainly no expert here, just going by what I found when I compared and selected the HP based on engine builder's recommendation.

Curious what the pros and cons are of putting the fuel up forward? Better weight balance? How much effect does it have on the CG being a bit higher than typical cars that put the fuel lower and rearward? What about the safety aspects?

At least in this ad several folks already told him it's not an SU. Doesn't seem to bother him enough to edit the ad or make a correction that is noteworthy. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1404776046442278

I'm in decision mode currently. I may pull the plug next summer. Depends if company ownership cinches down the golden handcuffs more or not. I'll be 57 next year. I think worst case is to head to pasture summer of 2026 but would like it to be sooner.

I'm placing an order for a new Albins from Weddle (via Funco) in the next day or so for my Funco build. Can this be added to an Albins? Car will have a Holley Pro system. Any idea if that supports the no lift shift parameters required?

Yep, Oregon takes their flag laws pretty serious. I got stopped once because I only had a 3' x 5' yellow smiley face flag on my rail. You have to have orange or red in Oregon and it must be on top. You can fly multiple flags but an orange or red must be the top flag. Fortunately the LEO was cool...

Just look back before the COVID inflation spike and when the FED started raising rates. You couldn't 2% on a CD, even lower for a long time. Unfortunately, T-bills are already dropping too and will likely continue more once they lower rates. Won't be many ultra-low risk places to stash cash and...

I’ve owned it since new. Don’t think anything damaged it. The Ford radiators are known to develop leaks where the plastic tank crimps to the core. I never had an issue with my last F350 radiator for 15 years. Oh well, just my luck this time I guess. No other real issues with the truck (knock...

Following up on this. I put some stop leak in the weeping radiator and it held for a year then started weeping again from the same spot. I bought the Mishimoto all alum radiator and did the swap this weekend. The new radiator looks like a piece of jewelry. Doing the swap was a decent size...
