What's wrong with hockey pucks? They are cheap and work fairly well. It is actually a fairly common thing. They are ALOT stiffer than stock though.


Glad to see you up and ready to run again. Lawrence?

They arent hockey pucks, although I had thought of that. These are actually some air bag mounts for a guy's S-10 he had. They worked good and were just about the right height so I used 'em. They are solid steel lol. I powdercoated them matte black, along with most of the other parts.

As far as Lawrence, I doubt I will be able to make it (at least with my car). Fall however, thats a different story. Be prepared for more burnout vids.

Edit: Also plan on running "the crazy one". It will be interesting what our cars do compares to each other. Of course, by then I will most definitely be "cheating" with either 50 or 75 horse....
