It looks like there is a 30% chance of rain on Sunday the 30th man so if it stays this way we will have to go another day. I just wanted to give you heads up in case you were going to meet us out there.

I will post again on Saturday with my decision.

If it does not rain then try to go if you can because we will have about 15 or so cars just from Lafayette including a Grand National with 525 hp and GT500 Shelby with 1,000 HP. I am supposed to match up with the Grand National, should be fun!

Awesome! I'll try to come and watch. I might be sporting the SRX.

My car is not in any kind of shape to run as I am reconstructing the exhaust with mandrel bends and what not. The exhaust shop did such a shitty job that one muffler came off and they also kinked my exhaust when they bent the pipe to get the mufflers to fit. Also, EVERY weld they did leaks. My exhaust, intake, tires, plugs and other stuff arent getting done until next week.

other than a bad battery, inside front bald tires neg. camber..and a Tilton diaphram pump, that barely got me home that he used as the scavenger pump,,,,,the car is in extremely good shape..I had it tunned from a vendor on the LS1 Tech, and a week later the motor started knocking. no biggy though...i wanted it forged anyway.. the 9'' irs or 4link is next, so by mid March it will be really NICE

you know me guys, I would have vids if I went, lol. I know the wait sucks, it rained cats and dogs on Sunday so I am shooting for this Sunday. The weather is supposed to be nice and sunny at 60 degrees.

JJsimon, call me on Sat. to confirm and I am trying to get someone else to go with me to do the out of car vids so I am working on that now. I also want to run the Grand National so I am seeing if he can go too.

Car is running great though since I changed the pump and timing chain. It hates to go slow with that 4.30 gear and cold weather so it think it will like the 1320. I hope so anyways, lol.

I should be able to go, but there is one thing looming that might cause me to miss it. I definitely want to see this thing run.
