^ awesome photo. Should have left the splitter on. It would have put you over the top with style points AND helped glue the front end down. J/K. Sounds like you had a great time. Have yet to see a photo of your car that I didnt like.

Thanks Martin, the only video I've seen, the car looks pretty good. Really glad it wasn't my autox run where I got lost in the forest.LOL

[Ron S]

Just saw these pics on Bangshift, wish I would have taken more pics. We are always so busy at these events. Love the dust all over the tires from all my off road adventures.

[Ron S]

Sorry, this is the last one, off the fender bender site.

That's a celebrity riding shotgun.

[Ron S]

Yeah, I really don't know the guy, just picked him up hitch hiking. Kinda felt sorry for him, he was holding a sign, that said, will work for race car.

[Payton King]

Only if you think a porn star is a celeb. LOL

It was more like "bring your kid to work" day. I felt honored to be able to ride with greatness and have photo proof I was there.

My first year at SEMA as well, and it was a ton of fun. I was excited to see the car there... been a fan for a while after all. BTW, how long did it end up taking you guys to get the optima stickers on the car anyways?

This car is starting to look refined. It has emblems now.

Ron,

What was your fix for the ls oil problem?

It was greAt to see your car at optima.

Ron,

As far as the dry sump system goes, I ended up using an ARE oil pan with the LS7 pump, remote mounted a filter, and added a cooler with a bunch of duct work going to it. It totally fixed the problem, oil temps are actually a little too cool, and the water temps with the duct work never exceed 195, even under extreme, extreme duress.

I plan on using the ARE pan as well, glad to hear more positive feedback on it. Forgive me if you already said it, I am too lazy to read through the thread again, but how big is your dry sump tank?
