    Took her to the track tonight to get one good pass in before the season was over... Drove an hour there and beat on the car the whole way... Get the car around to the staging lane and do my burnout... Car spins to 7000 faster than I can even stop it (heavy foot obviously)... And blows a coolant hose off... It's a tiny one on the cobra intake... Just enough to dump some water and get my attention... Backed out of the lane and spent 30 mins trying to get the hose back on... Finally did and decided I will not take my chance with it doing it again half track... Drove back home and did some from 40 races with a friend and no problem... I think I discovered my cars dislike of the track

    Awesome! I'm going to hit up the local Fox body guy, and give it a shot!
    Has to be one of the best innovations this year!
