    I can't believe the patience of these guys when dealing with the fans while trying to get work done on their car. Maybe it's just me, but if I see someone with a tool in their hand working on their car, I don't interrupt them. The fans that stand there for 10 or 15 minutes asking the racers questions and telling them about whatever piece of crap car they had in high school when it is obvious the racer has work to do just seems incredibly rude. I know the racers will say they love the fans and they are incredibly gracious - but good grief, people, have a little respect for their time! If they have to literally walk around you to get to their car, you are in their way!

    Kevin is 25% Canadian EH? How does that manifest itself in your life? Do you have unexpected cravings for maple syrup? Do you wash your hands before you go to the bathroom. Do you know what the movie Slap Shot is about? Do you accidentally slip in a Zed instead of a Zee? Get uncontrollable urges to yell "HER RAAAY SWEEP HARDER!!!", Do you know the names of over 5 Finnish people because they are hockey players? Do you know why The White House is white? If you answered yes to any of these I'm sorry to say that you must plant tulips in your garden in for the spring tulip festival like they have in Ottawa.

And then a 66 Rambler Wagon.. "A Rambler wagon.. that's a rare car.. people would remember such a rare car..." Oh and the one that really kills me at $5900 with no engine or trans but decent interior is a 1966 GTO! My god father has a 66 or 67.. there's also someone selling a 389 locally.. If only I had money or sponsors.. the things I could do and the videos I could make.. If only.
    Now to do the big block setup and really start going fast.. once you add a few more tubes to the cage.

    So say my caprice ppv all stock could run a 13.40 in a quarter mile at 4400 pounds. What would I need to run sick week? Besides a ton of cash. I don't think it's fast enough for a cage of any kind. But good tune would help, lol & better gears .

I asked her what she was doing and she said "Papa, you need to watch this guys channel! He is so great and explains lots". I laughed and said I have been subscribed since almost the beginning. She asked if you were related to me (my last name is smith). I just chuckled and said I wish. Keep up the great work Kevin. Love your attitude, work ethic, and skills.

    Kevin, have you ever thought about getting those electronic exhaust cut-outs? It might make driving a lot more comfortable with some mufflers? And firing up straight pipe soccer mom at 7 in the morning in the hotel parking lot can't make you too many friends either! Hahaha. Seriously though, it's got to be a lot more comfortable on you driving 4 hours with straight pipe.... Or am I completely mistaken and you actually have mufflers and that's the best they can do. I didn't think about that.

    Hey Kevin - hoping you can point me in a direction since you know some stuff and have done some stuff. My build has a Holley Terminator X Max and I have a very strange issue. On cold starts the o2 takes a while to heat up and the computer things it's all the way lean until the o2 heats up. If I wait to start it until the o2 to warms up then there isn't an issue. Tried a different sensor. My buddy's car with a TermX doesn't do this. I've just set up a table to keep it from doing any corrections for the first 15 seconds after startup but I'd prefer that it actually works right. I've seen posts online of other people having this issue but nobody seems to have found a solution. Have you run into this before? Any ideas of things to look at?
