Adding insult to injury I came home and was getting ready to go get the water pump and my battery decided to let go. I wanted to replace it with one that fit the battery box better and keep the old one for either the SHO or Supra, now I will be buying another one and one for my SHO and Supra...working on 5 batteries this year...Might be time to downsize on a few more cars and the SHO will be the first to go as it gets the least attention.

Get some good times tonight guys!

None of those batteries were under warranty? I always try to **** them before the warranty expires.

No, I replaced the one in my Jeep, Rover, and Viper...Viper one was prorated being 4 years old, others were from prior owners and I had a 8 year old Duralast finally die from being in many vehicles. Replaced my old SHO battery last year but I don't know where it went and that was prorated as well. This one was a crap walmart one previous owner installed...cells dried up, happens all the time with the newer batteries in FL but it is sealed so you can't fill them back up.

Yeah slow is right. It was so hot and muggy it was disgusting. I was starting to get the hang of launching when I realized it was a futile effort given the conditions.

My best was 14.987 @ 94.71 w/ a 2.335 60'. I'd like to go back after it cools down a bit and play around some more.

God I hope Brian is ready by then. I am sure the turbo SHO may come out and if I do some more work on my SHO it will, otherwise it will be the Typhoon.
