My 1972 Dodge Dart
Have not run it at the track, and as a cruz night car likely will not. Yesterday was actually it's first drive as I took it to get NY state inspection, and as expected a couple of issues came up as part of the shake out of any new vehicle. Ex. needs a good alignment, certain gauges still not correctly calibrated, but the one that I'm worried about is the car runs very hot. I had to go with an unusual cooling set up due to space consideration, I would have liked to go with a traditional mechanical fan and shroud, but had to go with an electric "pusher" fan in front of the over-sized radiator - and I don't think it's working well. Will likely have to rework this set up, but without major surgery I'm not sure what other options I have. Either way I can't drive the car regularly until I get that sorted out. With this photo you can see the lack of space behind the radiator.....10lbs into the 5lbs bag.....
