He wouldn't slow down at all, I wanted to go from 70 but he was being a b!tch. So we went to about 140 and he got me by about 4 or 5 legnths. I don't know what he had, he just kept hauling *** after that. But anyways, are ya'll going out to Lakeland Thursday, if so, let me know. Tim.
Well atleast you didn't have to get busted with us. This Thursday they are closed. We might go to Orlando Friday but I am not for sure. I want to get her painted by then but if it rains we have to wait because of moisture. Dang car is being a b*@#% just like her owner . She is alive though. Jeremy did a great job. When you do your motor we highly recommend Jeremy. No one else would've stayed up till 4 something in the morning. He is one AWESOME DUDE .
Well gotta get to sanding.

Well Tim I guess the computer at LMSP went down. We drove there and found the gates locked and even called. Went home to make a post at the web site and somebody already did. They were pissed off. Came blame them they drove from Orlando. We are going sat. they have tnt 6pm till 9pm. We were going to go to BMSP sat but Jeremy said my tranny will not last long and i would rather brake at LMSP its closer to home. We will not have the car dolly this weekend sister needs it. Oh well have to keep waiting. I haven't even got on it full throttle yet its killing me. I might have to find a back road soon.
Talk to ya later

She did good. But now my front bumber is seperating from both sides and its very noticable. So she is comming apart today hopefully painted tuesday or wenseday. Got to find a roll cage asap. Need one so that it swings out I still will need my back seats. I drive it every day so the ones we have seen I don't like. If you notice in the picture the rear drivers tire is unloading. Drivers front tire still comes up higher than the passanger side and the body well you get the picture, not good.

Can't wait to see the car painted. There is a picture of one on GMHTP.com. Anyways, I went out to Publix at about 10 and I didn't see anything there. There was a red GTO but no one beside it. Did ya'll go out there later on or something? I'll be in Cali for the next few months, which sucks, but my first couple rounds of mods will be at the house waiting on me. Later. Tim.

crazy launch paula. i believe you need a wolfe or bmr extreme anti roll bar back there in the rear. it will help out tremendously with that body roll. help plant the tires evenly and get that 1.39-1.40 60' no problem.

We went out there about 11 or so there was some stangs and alot of imports not like last week. Jeff had the silver Z out there after he told us he wasn't going and think he is upset that the TA runs so good and he can't be king of the streets now. But hey I am not king of the streets either you don't see me blowing people thats faster than me off. oh well sh*t happens.

That means you wont be here for the big event at LMSP sat and sun. Alot of half naked girls. Wicked Motorsports is having the wicked weekend. Some realy fast 4-wheelers and Bikes. Some in the 4s in the 1/8. We had Gregs Banshee in the one in Ga. it blew up an hour before the illiminations. It was very upsetting. A friend didnt want to caugh up the $200 entry fee so he let us use his bike with Greg plastics and our rider redlighted second round. If its running in time it will be there. I hope we atleast get some money back between the car and the 4-wheeler its like x-mas all year.
Talk at ya later Paula

I will have Greg check on that I do need a roll cage too. But gotta be picky on it. Sanded some more today and noticed my driver side light is under the hood a little guess she really didnt like both tires in the air Saturday hope no more damage is done on Thursday. Got a vet calling me out.

Greg will be there but not me. Tranny slipping and I can't race the whole 1/8 so he wants to try to beat my 60ft. If he comes home with a better 60 then 1.388 I am gonna scream. Tranny parts came in today so next week I will be ready.

Hey Ls1Mongrel. I was debating whether or not I wanted gears. How do you like 3:73's, what is you cruise rpm at 80-85? Also, how do you like a 3800 stall for the street? Sounds kinda big, I was thinkin about doing a 3200tc. Do you think that it would be good for street strip. I'm not really worried about having to goto a bigger stall if I have to. Streetability means nothing to me, as long as it will haul *** on the street. I'm use to riding around in old school big blocks that get like 5 mpg, so daily driver is a loosely used term to me. Thanks, Tim.
