Pics of the low DC Z even lower now.....



After buying it about 2 days later we slammed it good on stock bolts and cut bushings, you could just get 2 fingers above the tires. Now you can only get 1 finger above them with the new Pfadt adjustable coilovers. I have it set up to ride like a pimpin Lincoln town car! Or, you could make it so stiff it will break your teeth. 16 ride settings on each coilover, you pick your poison. (article soon, lots of info to put together.) I'm super excited if you couldn't tell. Coolest mod ever!

Took these pics with my lame 2.0 megapixel camera tonight after washing the bugs off, they didn't come out great.

After coilovers...
(no the car doesn't have to be this low, you could make it 3 inches higher, or go even lower)

RACING...Because with baseball, football, basketball, tennis, and golf, you only need one ball

I used to think that I had learned patience as I got older. Then I realized that I just didn't give a shit

If it ain't a C-4 it's a parts car.

Technically, something that is "behind your back" is really right in front of you.
