Yay! Trackspec!

Time for trackspec for me - yay, or just stay out of the 115 degree stop and go traffic.

i've driven in 100-105* without any problem.s My temps will stay around 210-220* both oil/water.

I decided to run to the mall and pick up my new glasses about a 25 mile drive for me. The temps were 94 at my home, by the time i got into town it was 115. Stopped the car ran inside for about 15 minutes, left, then on way home had to get gas and pick up dinner 5-10 minute stops for each within 10 minutes apart. Those two additional stops put my car over 230 for my water temps. Oil was fine staying below 220. Car was fine as long as I was driving but just sitting after driving without anything circulating made my temps spike while it sat. By the time i got home i was back at 208.

I've put it off really because i like how my hood looks nice and polished, time to stop being a baby and cut it.

I didn't want to cut my hood either but some times you got to do what you got to do.

Sounds like some sort of gang initiation.

If you wanna sit at the cool kids table, you’re gonna have to cut up them hoods.

If I cut a hole in my Jeep’s hood and install a vent, can that count?

The medium doesnt matter, just the action.

You will be fully initiated.
