Isn't nothing like some good old proper engineering to make a project worthwhile. I wanted to be able to run my big wheels & tires to really hook next year, so, off to work I went.

Think she'll hook? My Formula has never felt this way before!

It's a joke...I was looking through online auctions for a buddy for a V6 98-02 Firebird to make into a back-half race car, and I found that "car"...

Since mine is a red Formula, I thought people that knew my car would get a laugh out of this...

Matt...in a word, NO. Sunny and low 60's today. Can't wait to get my car back from the shop this week on next. Cage is in with a nice shiny NHRA sticker on it. Probably going up in power this winter, just deciding how much, but not in your league...yet. Ah, the joys of having tracks open all year.

Take care. Dave

Looks like you can work under it without a lift

I like how the offset is so fucked up. The wheels stick out probably 5 to 6 inches beyond the fenders. :jest:

I need to get it in DONK, BOX, & BUBBLE magazine!

...Volume 2 is out, too!

But seriously, we all take our freedom for granted. What a great country that we can spend our retirement money and kids college funds on racecars, monster trucks, low riders, rock crawlers, and Donk Boxes!

Take care and be safe. Dave

Get your facts right...23" wheels, baby! Not sure which would hook better, these Fred Flinstones or some space-saver spares! :jest:

Work out your way (Arlington), live over on the east side of the Metroplex.

Look for me at Redline or the Texas Motorplex in my Firebird or GTO. Take care. Dave
