March 3, 2018

Back to the track :)

 


 

 

December 16, 2017

What does a typical track day look like for you? Here's mine :)

 

 

December 2, 2017

After hitting the track and running a 10.51 at 131MPH, I was curious how much power Go Man Go was putting down to the tire. I had an opportunity to attend a local dyno day, and the results surprised me as much as the track times!

 

 

November 25, 2017

Hit the track with Go Man Go for his first real track day. Beech Bend cancelled their program due to weather, so my buddy Greg and I headed south to Alabama International Raceway, more on that trip later. VERY impressed with the times the car put down. There might be a little more in it as I learn what it likes.

 

 

November 23, 2017

Happy Thanksgiving everybody. While you're fighting off that turkey coma, here's a little information on the race setup I'm using on Go Man Go. My Weld 17x4.5 front runners from Orange Krush wouldn't fit over the massive brakes on Go Man Go,so I had to find another solution that involved some Racestar Dark 18x5 front runners, M&H 4.5x28x18 front runners, and some Plasti Dip. Details inside including weight differences!

 

 

November 11, 2017

After seeing several folks pretzel their stock drive shaft, I decided it was cheap insurance to upgrade the drive shaft in Go Man Go to a DSS Aluminum unit. Beefy is an understatement, how to in side.

 

 

September 15, 2017

I thought it over and decided to give ceramic coatings a try on Gon Man Go. Results exceeded my expectations. The car will now have a permanent just polished and waxed gloss, be easier to clean, and the ceramic will last 7+ years. It's a no brainer!

 

 

August 20, 2017

The Hellcat sway bars made contact with the Weld 17x10 racing wheels just like they did on Orange Krush. I used the same simple solution of shortened sway bar end links to make tire changes at the track a breeze.

 

 

August 12, 2017

I wanted to protect the front of Go Man Go from the rock chips I've experienced on some other vehicles. I decided to go with a clear bra and I'm happy to report the install came out perfect, AND it's COMPLETELY INVISIBLE! Details inside.

 

 

 

July 29, 2017

A fellow Hellcat enthusiast developed and produced a brace to strengthen the IRS differential. The price was right and it was cheap insurance so we picked one up for Go Man Go.

 

 

July 1, 2017

Out playing around with some of the performance pages. This was on a 90+ degree day with terrible humidity.

 

 

June 24, 2017

Traction with the factory installed Pirelli All Season tires was a serious issue. Dodge should have made a DOT drag radial an option for the Hellcat. I rectified the situation with a set of Factory Reproduction tires and some 555R Nittos and instantly dropped my 0-60 time from 4.5 to 3.6 with little effort.

 

 

June 17, 2017

Getting to know the Hellcat a bit better and completed the first oil change and got rid of the VERY dusty front brake pads. How to and before and after brake tests inside.
