They probably didn't take into consideration that to many people that get them would be going 205

Im watching pass time now they have that same eposide on again, unless they fimed a few from there (same track though). That shows on here every night at 7:30

Ive still never seen a crash at Epping but the ones I saw when I were down there were pretty sweet, not that I want anyone to get hurt but always a case of better him then me If your still down there next yr maybe I'll come down for another vacation but hopefully be able to spend more time then last time. I pretty much have all the parts I need to get the car to chris's shop and get it all put on. I cant wait to get some dyno/track numbers. Larry, watch your back

It's that turbo 5.0 w/ a real trans and room for track tires I'll be looking out for.

That said, I just made a round trip to CT of over 600 miles. Let's see you guys do that some weekend in your cars.

I drove it 1,500 miles back from FL

I wont be catching you anytime soon Larry if it keeps running like it does. Its falling flat on its face in the upper RPM's. The most I have trapped this year is a 104 MPH when last year I was 106-107 all the time. My 60" times are on par with what they were when I was at very low 13's and in the 12's. I had a camaro blow my doors off at the 1/8th mile mark. Some of the runs I have messed up on as far as how I drove it but not all of them and I just cant help but think there is something more to it. I dont think in ayway that putting cats on it would have that much of an adverse effect so I really dont think its that either.

Ouch that hurts. The Mobil off exit 9 by the drag strip has 93 for $3.53. I filled up there before I came home. Thats the cheapest Ive seen it anywhere for gas I dont know why that place is so cheap but its a good 25 cents cheaper then here

That sucks. I guess you really have to get the combo of H/C/I just right w/ those old pushrods.Much like getting the gears right w/ modulars.

the new combo will help out a lot but it should not have been running the way it was last night when it was much faster the way it was back then and nothing really has changed much since then. New combo once its tuned should be mint.

I haven't done anything yet. I'll probably end up renting the tool for the wheel wells instead of buying one.

That price sucks but good to hear your mileage is still doing good.

Have you bothered to change your fuel filter? Might want to check your ignition wires also. Just some thoughts.

Finally took the car out of the garage to wash all the dust off of it. Looks so much better now. You can really see the dirt roll of of a white car.
Larry I see a car like yours on my route. His paint is peeling off the truck also.
I also see a white GT500 with blue stripes. Love to try one of those out.
