Lakeland drag strip is 10 miles from my house. However the car is about 25 mins from there at the girlfriends. Her father is the one who helped me with the install. I can't pull start because of the auto

It takes patience, jumper cables and time to deflood. The jumper cables are to keep a charge on your battery because it will go dead at least 3 or 4 times while bringing it back to life. Jeff is a good dude out at maztech Tampa. Too bad I'm not home or I'd help you out man. My parents are just outside of Z-hills. Also guys I have some good friends that own a shop in Newport Richey. They work on Mercedes, BMW, and Rotaries. One specifically RX-8s. They built rx7 race engines back in the day for guys at NOPI classics. Give the owner a call at the shop. His name is Ryan. (727) 857-6085. He's really good guy man and might be able to help you out. Tell him Ed sent ya. He has a trailer that he can go pick ur car up if need be. Really fair with shop fees which is why with the vehicles he works on people hit them up. They're kind of an area kept secret. It's a licensed shop btw not a backyard mechanic.
