lol, yes indeed. After Madman welded up the oil pan, and we borrowed a thrust bearing from a display engine, the filter went back on the car. Bob

I'd pay the $250.00 if they had a shot when it was actually on the bumper, it's too bad they didn't get it. Bob

You should have put it on the bumper three or four times just to make sure you got a good pic

No doubt, hopefully there isn't a next time though... lol
It bent my new BMR manual steering K member, sagged the QA1 front springs, cracked the oil pan, and somehow took out the thrust bearing.
Oh, and I need a new front end alignment. Bob

I would imagine, I did it once but not quite as messy as yours. I take great pains to keep the front end down these days. Bad for pictures, good for parts

The run before was a 1.29 60ft with a 9.12 1/4 mile time. The car left with the front several feet up and was a great run. It was way too rich though, and we took some fuel out of it and put in new spark plugs. The old plugs were black! Naturally we were shooting for a high 8 second run after the 9.12 run, and we didn't not ever expect the car to hook like it did. I'm not really sure, but the dot radials may be a little more inconsistant in this respect. Bob
