Which brings us to an awesome taco shop about halfway up from San Felipe

RiverDave · Oct 18, 2024

Which now brings us state side and the only real bummer of the trip. Some girl blew a stop light and t boned John Holmes.. she wasn’t expected to survive.. John’s trailer and rzr are totaled.. I’m not a body guy but I’d expect the truck to be as well. They are ok, just a little shook up.

I’m in ehrenberg now and about an hour 30 from home..

It is a 1,000 times better than it was before.. it did get warm once on a long fast section.. but it was hot as balls and humid? I think with the radiator lift kit it’s done.. then I want to get all the Hollander upgrades next.

I thought Speed was suing everyone that wanted to make parts for their cars.

Did they give up on that now? Or was that just an interwebs rumor?

1000x better meaning ran cooler or did it help other things?

It ran cooler and having that much more oil I just feel helps everything overall.

To be fair, the lawsuits only pertain to those parts that have been patented. Not every single nut and bolt on the car is patented.
