Default Well since its winter now......

I know all this BS with the sell,not sell,slow it down,not slow it
down is getting old but after talking to a few buddies last night about why I get nuts they all said its because your just bored w/the car because u accomplished your goal,this is true and the car is costing me nothing so I'm gonna just be happy with what I have and continue to go after more ET/MPH and see just how quick I can go w/my little 346 on motor..

Cars getting some tweeks...Breadmanwalt Battery box is done,Spohn adj. anti-roll bar is going in and a few other little tricks

Does anyone have a Pewter Formula rear hatch (low spoiler) that they would trade even up for my T/A rear hatch (high spoiler)?

I think what he's saying is that his current hatch has tint and would want you to tint your current hatch to make the swap....and you're right he would be getting the better deal.

You know,stroker motor's are hot sellers this winter,even FI 346's I think you would like a stroked/blown 700hp daily driver.Forget 10's lets go 9's

I'm thinking stroked/blown/nitrous on my personal car Yes,it is a long winter

I cant get your hatch tinted..
Your getting my hatch which is more $$$ on an even up trade,whats it really gonna cost u to tint a hatch 60 bucks?Come on bro.your getting the better deal here as I just want the Formula hatch for weight.

Don,I'd love to go FI but that cost serious $$$$$$$$$$...I'm gonna try and see just how fast I can go with my 346 and then build a 4XX LS2,I'd like to go 9's on ALL MOTOR
