    Default Welcome Circle D

    I would like to welcome Circle-D Specialities to forum. From day 1 this is the converter I wanted in ITBFST. They are a local company that makes some real killer converters. I cant tell you what the stall is because I will let them use their experience to make a converter that will maximize my combination. Once again, Welcome!

    Welcome Guys - Unfortunately I think the power is probably still off at their shop as well.

    Thanks for the welcome. We have some new converters coming out for the G8 - 6L80 shortly. I have some out now being tested. I will post some pictures. Looking forward to helping everyone out with advice and making them faster with Circle D converters.

    We were hit by Ike, no real damage, just no power for 5 days. We still have no power at home. We are making our own!

    That car is a BEAST to run those ETs on a "little" tire.
