Thanks, I'd like to meet you also. Have you been out to SRP this summer? I've probably run there about 5 or 6 times this year. They'll have the reg. Sat. night drags and the Deer park reuniun on Sunday this weekend, and I'm planning on racing Sunday. Sorry to hear about your divorce.

They are Carrera 90/10 that I bought through M&M from Calvert Racing. They had the 3/8 stud on top but also came with a adapter plate and hardware for the early 2 bolt top mount which I used before I changed the mount. They are a true 90/10 and work great, the bottom mount is welded on better than the CE adjustable shocks that some have broke.
