Wheelie vid from November 1st This was from a month ago, my last pass of the season. Finally drug the rear bumper. 
Too bad the car next to me made an 8 second pass, kind of made me look slow. Not that my car is fast but it does leave well. 1.51 on the back tires. Usually high 1.3's with a best of 1.34 when I keep the front down. I also forgot about 3rd gear on this run so my ET was off by a couple tenths and 2 or 3 mph. I ran 10.40's @ 127 to 128 most of the Fall.

Yeah I had to include that comment. It was some old black guy checking out the bumper carnage obviously. I might just leave the bumper for a while until I can find a good deal on a used one in good shape. The gas tank also got scuffed but I'll leave that alone.
Suspension is BMR everything...everything. Except for the shocks and springs obviously. Those are QA1's. Stock springs in rear.

Running 4.10 gears still from 2003. This car has held up great. Only problem I ever had was a cracked ring land on #7. I could have just replaced the piston but I wanted something bigger and better of course so I went with a 383 stroker.
Larry, I actually did plan this but just didn't expect to necessarily drag the rear bumper. I had come close a few times but this time I just happened to go up a little harder than usual. I had my friend use my good 3CCD camera in hopes of getting one more good wheelie on film. Just so happened to work out to be my best wheelie. Photos were by Bret Kepner. You guys worked on my car back in 2003 also.
