One of the things I love about going down to JBA is that there’s usually something interesting on the dyno. Today, it was the Obsidian SG-One, a unique 1967 Mustang that, according to the builder, has $1.3 million invested. Speed shop general manager and tuning guru Bruce Tucker was on the laptop, tweaking the BigStuff3 standalone to dial it in.
A while back, I brought you the Ken Block Gymkhana video that posed the question, “how many cars do you have to wreck to get this good?” Turns out the number is somewhere between zero and one, as you’ll see in the just-released outtakes:

My goal is to provide clear information on technical subjects related to cars, both import and domestic. The cheapest, best way to improve your vehicle's performance is to understand how it works in the first place. The organic control module has a wide range of adjustment, so before you start spending a lot of money to go faster, it pays to make sure that the problem isn't somewhere between the steering wheel and the seat. TechWeasel, in addition to being a shrine to my growing Cult of Personality, is a place where enthusiasts can learn the basics that everyone else assumes you already know, and to ask the questions that you fear will earn you sneers at the tuner's shop or at the races. Remember: There are no stupid questions, but there are people who think an intake and coffee-can sized exhaust will make a Civic run 13's. - Paul Huizenga
