Oh and another thing. We run on the win light. First to the end wins. None of this "I had a faster ET" crap.

Hoods down run what you "brung", OK? What day is the event? I'll want you to put up some money ahead of time just to make sure you're going to show. I don't want to drive 2100 miles and not get to take home your money. Just put a roll bar in your turd, the bolt in wolfe is only $500 and you can take it out after the race if you want.

What kinda tree will they be running? I prefer a .500 pro light but will race on anything.

Hey so what does your TH400 car run on motor again? <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

This was at the Thunder Shootout on my very first pass of the day, after I had driven the car to the track on the 18s and swapped wheels. They didn't allow cutouts, and since I was outgunned by Judson, BeaSSt and GeorgeC, I just ran the car in street trim for the hell of it. Ran 10.67-10.7 all day long in that trim. Sounded like a V6 compared to all the cars I was racing against LOL! You couldn't even hear my engine on the burnouts. 3625 lbs raceweight, verified by Geoff at Thunder on the scales.

I never ran the car in cool weather or with weight removed. Wasn't really interested in going for any records, I just wanted a 10-second street car with all the luxuries. Different goals for everyone I suppose.

Good run on your setup!

Tony
