Good luck on Pinks, the show is kinda gay, Rich C. needs a kick in the *****, why they don't race from a Tree is still beyond me. Win one for the LS-x guys
I'd like to do the biodiesel but I just dont have the room, another reason I keep the car where its at is because its restricted subdivision friendly. Unfortunately that means I dont have room to do anything in the garage as it is
The diesel is only part of it though, race gas, tires, wear and tear on the car and trailer plus maintaining them costs. Not to mention hotels and food..The kids like the pinks thing, if you just look at it as entertainment and not professional drag racing or 'real' street racing its not so bad. Cant rip on the guy too bad, he pitched the show and got it going, produces it and really seems to get into the cars. Although he pulls some corny stuff once in a while its what makes it entertaining. Plus what the heck, 1/300 chance of winning 10K is the best odds you can get to win in a 'regular' car anywhere and you dont even have to be a good racer

Thats a really nice setup, alot of the turbo guys I am sure wish they where running this hard. I bet if/when you switch over to the Trickflow head probably pick up another .1 or .2 and a couple mph's. Can't do the creditcard racing.....credit card companies are owned by Satan and his minons in the bowels of hell.
