    Roloc Disc

    I would echo the above and also recommended stepping up in grit(higher). The 36 and 60 grit remove material damn fast. I almost prefer 80 or 120 unless I am in a huge time crunch and presentation of final product isnt important

    First Cordless Drill

    Look at Home Depot for a left over ryobi kit of drill/driver and 2 li-ion batteries. Should be had for under $200. Good platform to build off of

    Cracked a Craftsman socket.

    I broke a brand new Craftman US made 11/16 3/8" drive this past weekend. First time using it on a bolt. Broke with a ratchet. Not even a cheater bar. It happens. I've broken a fair amount of sockets. It comes with using your tools

    Ryobi Lithium Batteries 2 for 1

    Just checked the date codes on my NiCad's - 04. I've got good usage out of them... One did stop working after a few years and took it to batteriesplus for a fix but it never kept more than a half charge Looking forward to less downtime with the new 4 pack I bought.

    Anyone have Air Jacks on their car?

    You don't need nitrogen. You can use compressed co2 as well or even high psi compressed air cylinders. Our cup cars weigh 2800lbs for reference. We have not retrofitted these jacks to any other cars as most of the series we run they are not needed

    Group Buy - 7000 lb capacity 2 post lift - $2000 shipped to your door!

    Wes, I sincerely hope you get a free/heavily discounted lift for all your effort here. You've stuck out your neck and gone over and above whats expected of an unbiased/impartial individual. Some would argue that you may have lost credibility/become a fanboy but that's irrelevant, what's...

    Position the motion detector such that its field is high enough off the ground that small animals won't trigger it Or use a garage door trip light for the same effect positioned at 4 ft high

    We have a set on one of our porsche cup cars. They are costly and only provide an advantage when pit timing is a factor.

    Group Buy - 7000 lb capacity 2 post lift - $2000 shipped to your door!

    I was very interested but after reading all the responses and lack of straight forward responses, this seems pretty half baked. Appreciate the effort to set this up but I'd prefer the peace of mind and pay more for a vetted and engineered solution. I'm gonn take my name off and wait for a...
