  Hello DAKsters & Bill,

  What prompted me to do this was how much more powerful and responsive
the truck feels when it's stone cold. I don't like to jazz the throttle
on a cold engine, so I came up with the next best thing. Now I need to
do the switch setup that Tom Moffat alluded to in his post - Putting a
temp sensor in the windshield washer tank and switching over to it in
times of "need". My RC R/T runs very traction limited 14.8's on stock
tires and crummy asphalt. I feel it would pull 14.5's at the strip on
good pavement.

                Later,

                        Russ Selkirk
