Hopefully soon. However, South Louisiana is roughly the temperature of the surface of the Sun right now.

Yeah, it is going to have to be an afternoon to night time deal. I also will probably have to trailer it in this heat.

This is not exactly a street cruiser either, but it can if need be.

Been a while since I updated.

The car is ready, finally. Hitting the track next weekend. Here is a short inside video of a friend taking a ride yesterday. This was on low boost and my street tires, which are BFG 275-60 Drag Radials.

And to think of all the timing I've pulled out of that thing in attempt to get it to hook.

Resistance to the spinning is futile lmao.

It looks and sounds like its running real good. Two things though,,,
The look on your face as your trying to keep it straight is classic. You look like your having way to much fun.
The other thing is ,You need to take dad for another ride. His facial expressions and reactions are priceless.
