JIC 10/12, TRG neutral. Perfect for a quick 100mi drive up from Ct. The transformation was ona par w/ when the cup trans went in. This is what a car should drive like!!!!!

Bill, would you please explain the suspension lingo and all that went into for the ignorant? Thanks.

Also, what are the benefits of the yellow lenses?

Since I'm assuming Bill has turned in and we have identical set ups, I'll jump in and interpret. The JIC are 15 position single adjustable shocks. So when he says 10/12, that means +10 and +12 clicks hard. But the JIC manual says to adjust by turning the shocks full hard, then backing off which is why I'll report -5/-3 (F/R). TRG sways have five adjustments in the front, three in the rear. Neutral is the middle holes in front and rear.

The yellow lenses are plastic overlays that help with rock chips. Perhaps someone else can jump in and tell us if they have optic benefits.

Thanks, Don.

Bill, when I think of New York I don't see that pretty rural setting. Did you take a trip or do I need to get out more?

NY is more farm and forest than many know from TV/media, the pics above are in a town park, It's a pleasant 4mi run on foot there, around the perimeter and back to my house.

very nice Bill, you have a great stable of cars.

Agreed. I was in Rochester, NY on business a month ago, and can say that there is alot of 'beautiful country' in NY. The Finger Lakes region was as far East that I travelled, but we did travel over and into Canada as well. I-90 was a very nice road to travel! I'll be returning to the Rochester area in a month - hope the weather is nicer. It was just as hot in NY as it was in SC back in July!

We had several people travel with us, and no one could get over how much farmland there was.

BTW, Bill, very, very nice! I'm just a little envious! With everything you've done, the color is what 'does it' for me!

Later,
Mike

Bill,

Just a reminder (as if you need it) the Hudson-Champlain Region will be at The Glen is a couple weeks, and North New Jersey visits for a couple weekdays the following week. Let's really see how that baby handles!

I dunno 'bout perfect...he did get the color right though:





Beautiful car Bill.

[JeremyD]

Car looks great Bill - almost slammed!

[randywebb]

optic benefits... - it's debateable; there is less light being thrown out, but it more monochromatic, so there will be less chromatic abberation for the driver's eye to deal with


Bill - Do you deel energetic enough to document each phase in detail and tie it all together like Jack did for BBII, and is doing now for his rear spoiler project? I suspect a lot of people would be interested.

[kg911]

Wow, very inspiring. That looks Bad A$$.

I am planning on it, next weekend for the Zippo Historics too.

I've actually spent a lot of time out there this summer, I bought 14 acres near the track, spent a lot of time on a bulldozer and backhoe, spreading 300 tons of gravel for the driveway. Oh my achin back

Bill -

How long were you going to keep this a secret? (The land aquisition, not the Phase IV).

Welcome to town, neighbor!!
