Took the car out today!! LOL I couldn't help myself! I was at the shop today and it just looked too tempting. It has been up on the lift since the last time to the track. No plates, numbers on the window. Chute upacked, chute line hanging out the hatch. Slicks, front end strapped down. I didn't even have to charge the battery. I went the the gas station and put $25.00 of 93 in and drove around for a while. It got a little cold, no heat! 
I can't wait until spring!!!

Well atleast you got a a nice fix. Mine is just sitting under covers I almost took it out the otherday but the roads were soaked so I just started it and made sure nothing was leaking. I bet your car ran good with the nice cool weather we had today. I cant wait until spring time either.

Haha, for ONCE, John actually made a funny. That old age has actually sharpened his wit. Too bad it will be five more years before he gets into the 8s 
Larry: The new PA chrome moly k-member with upper & lower a-arms is in, as well as the Meziere drag water pump. Now it's time for Aerospace drag brakes all around with a manual master cylinder & ABS delete, as well as a lightweight battery. With the 30hp/28tq that we got out of it by leaning it out and pulling 2* of timing, and the 225lb weight loss, we should be very close to breaking the stock internal record. That is my plan.
