Drilled shims or bleed holes in pistons? I haven't heard of drilling shims unless maybe he had to open up the center hole to use a different company's shims on someone else's shocks.

Buggy did awesome out there! The shootout was a blast was able to pull off a 5th place finish. I screwed up on the bounty hill run, the buggy before me had issues and took about 30 min to recover and I think that played some mind games with me.

My 5th place run gained me an entry into the unlimited 4400 race on Friday and a 4400 team found me out for that spot. I was able to start the race for them in car 4480 I gotta say that was the best 13 miles I've ever drove. Something about 800hp and 14" of uptravel just called to me.

Thank you to everyone that had a hand in this buggy making my KOH week amazing!

It's easy when they're immobile. Then it's a little harder when they're mobile. Then you're fukked when you have two that are mobile.

My TJ needed a brake caliper 2 months ago. It still needs a brake caliper. Anybody want a 1 ton TJ? It stops great. Doesn't un-stop very well.
