Keith, you're a great friend and a good sport.
Well, Keith and I decided to work on my Cobra Saturday. Everything pretty much went downhill from there...
Well, the only thing that went according to plan was taking the old ones out. There are many grisly details, some of which we should probably take to the grave to spare our families any dishonor....
The end result of it all? Well, the experiment of cutting 1/2 of a coil off the stock springs failed. It dropped too much, I wanted a drop of maybe an inch at max, I got at least 1.5 inch drop. Doesn't look bad, but now I might have to do the fronts or try it again. Not an experience I want to repeat...
Oh, and the anti hop shocks still hop, just not as bad.
Then I go to PIR and its not crowded but with bad air I run a pathetic 12.7 @ 110 mph and after my 4th run my car doesn't want to start. I think the heat may have temporarily knocked out the battery or something. After a cool down it was fine.
