So 25.5 or just go all the way to 25.3?

25.5. Because of what I have already with the 8.50 cert and the ladder bar suspension with mini tub, I won't be that hard at all to upgrade to the 25.5. I am going to do that the same time the headers are redone because of the different cylinder head.

Commercial real estate with a good company. No college degree here. Just made sure every time I switched jobs, it was always a step up. But I have had a lot of time to do this as I am now 46.

It's also priorities. I don't spend a lot of money on really anything else, I have no car payments, I mean I did buy two used quads, have a couple guns, a DSLR that is pretty old but still takes great pics, a mountain bike, some hiking/climbing, and that is about it. The other hobbies I have, you have a big first expense, then its cheap from there on out--like mountain biking for example.

This racing thing is by far the most expensive, as even when your car is racing, I can spend easily $500 for a weekend event when you add up the tow vehicle gas, the track and class entry fee, race gas, etc.

I have to be honest, I didn't understand 100% of everything that was said but it sure looks like you have some serious hardware and it certainly sounds like you know your shit.

I look forward to see how you make out with this setup!

Well this sucks

Cleaning up my headers. They don't have to be perfect as I need new flanges welded on them anyway because of the different exhaust port on the heads, but damn. 2 1/2 years of racing + a bunch of oil baked into the headers and I need simple green, dawn, then sandpaper to get this clean.

Here is what I had to start with:

And what took me 3 hours, just for this:
