Wow! Heck of a way to find out.

"If you read this" ... figure if they know your URL, etc they'd know how to contact you to begin with.

Yeah, I've seen pics of your car floating around all over on various boards over the last few days... cool to see you're getting some recognition.

Yeah, I'm a bit black and blue for letting the Monte go. I knew I should have kept it but got into a bind.

At least John is giving it a name worthy of something other than 'pimp mobile'

when will we see you at the drags again?
Probably after I install my fully ported LS7 heads with a nice lumpy camshaft to see if I can crack a 10.99 pass since I know I'm going to break 11.49 and not have a roll cage.
Which issue of CHP is it?
September, page 118/119 on the bottom.

Just got the e-mail confirmation CHP!!! Henry wants to come up and shoot the car but just has to figure out the timing
