So I was standing there welding the driver's side bracket on having a good time. Little bit of wire burnt off sticking off the side so I went to brush it off like I've done before. Guess I should have waited a few seconds more after the wire stopped glowing red hot. Poked a hole right through the leather welding glove right through the tip of my finger cauterizing it so no blood came out. Now I have a small tunnel through the tip of my middle finger Other than that, it's not going too bad. Looks like I'll be taking the backing plate off to get to one more weld. Can't wait to try these things out at the track

I see a new wave of body piercing sweeping the nation!

Be sure to post up results... I'm very curious.

Will this be the only change since last time? I've always wanted to see results from someone who didn't change other things than just the lca brackets.

Changes from last year are a new fuel system and some weight reduction, think I've taken out only about 30 lbs. Oh and I got some Weld Pro Star rims for the rear only so far, they're 35 lbs with the Hoosier 26x11.50's mounted. I can always go from the stock location and then try the other 2 positions at the track, not hard to do so may try that. First run it will be in the stock location since I'll have a passenger and don't want any surprises. Even though it's only going to be a half track pass, she's been waiting forever to go for a ride

sits and waits patiently for results!!!!

Right now I'm feeling the buuuuurn from the dang welding lol Took a break after the red hot wire went into my finger but I have one bracket to go Posting pics later tonight, including the finger.

jeeze dude, what time is it out there? i'm in Jersey this weekend for the NSCA race here at Atco...i'm 'bout to go to bed!

It's 11:20 I'm a night owl or a freak lol Still looking iffy for race day Saturday due to weather but I emailed the head tech and he said it's looking ok.

Here's the other LCA bracket installed


One of my new wheels woohoo looks so good on the car


Then the red hot poker finger, not that bad but still hurt a little.

hehe, been there! normally it's slag onto the bare arms, cause i have a hard time remembering gloves, or sleeves! but yeah, i know what you mean! get some pics with the pro-stars on!

NICE!!, oh yea good looking LCA install to

I was going to post "this thread is useless without pics" but it looks like you've solved that problem

Looks good though man

By the way that's my middle finger, get to flip off everyone showing them
Here's another from last night before leaving, yes one lug is missing cause the stud got buggered up. Replacing that today along with the two left handed lugnuts the parts store got me grr.

Those rims kick A$$

Just need the front ones now and I'm going to step up to some 28's in the back instead of 26's.

I got a set of fronts!!! check out the sig.....I have rears too but my buddy needs to use my slicks so he can take his car to get the cage put in.

yeah buddy! almost as cool as mine! lol!

Which are those ones, rodlite? Hehe, 3 of my friends have weld rims. One runs rodlite, other runs draglite and the one I got mine from runs prostars. Seems like the weather man might be full of it. Called for rain all day today and it never came so might be a good chance of going to the track tomorrow night

yea pro stars are cool.....no particular reason why i like them... haha

chaulk some LCA relocation brackets onto my ever growing list, mmmm.....

guess i'll need axles before brackets though, hahahaha.

lookin good man! you should like those new brackets

yep, those are the rodlites.

*&%*$#^% stupid weather, not racing today. Next one is in May.

check the GP forum, great price on some relo brackets.
