you mean like a 6 mega pixel pic or something? I can shoot some more pics of her. I have the valve cover off here at the moment, just doing an inspection on my valvesprings.

might be racing her later. Hope i don't break anything..

Wish me luck going against 8 and 9 second cars!

well you know how insanely hot it was yesterday? 90 plus temps with 90 percent humidity after it rained?

well i made one time pass yesterday cause i did the no bull race in the true street class. I forgot to take out 50 lbs of tools in the back, the motor was totally heat soaked and I know the tune sucks

she went 11.3. that is with the heavy *** 18's in the front. not too bad considering the weather conditions. I want to get this pig in the 10's, waiting for the right air to come along and I should be there.

i need some skinnies in the front too.

A lot better than my Gainesville run huh?
