I need a sway bar (wolf installed at the moment), converter, valve springs and tires to be in the mix on ES NA. Would like to make it out this year. Hopefully the car will make it off the trailer....... under it own power this time!

I really want to be able to make it out to my first LTX Shootout. I have to make sure that my car stays in one piece and I don't keep taking it apart, and then I gotta get some LE heads to even be competitive.

I would love to roll out with the Chicago Crew, maybe on a trailer if I can get my hands on one.

If you do, I need to contribute.

I owe my real trophy from last year partly to Larry's red light.

I would have to put my 383" back in. The one I run now has a Bowtie block. Probably can't run it.

Ed,

If last year is anything to go by, it would be worth the effort. I had a blast.

I too would love to finally meet you.

Take Care,

Daren

Ed you can make it! You did my very first tune about 11yrs ago. It would be great to meet you and see your beast run! I think a bowtie block would be fine in outlaw!!!

Glad to hear you may make it this year, Ed. With all the business you do, you likely don't remember me, but I've been to your shop before

Mike, I don't think a bowtie block is gonna fly even in outlaw, the rules cleary state that to run in this event the engine must be LTx based...a bowtie block is not...

I would also like to know this. I still haven't swayed myself enough to put a cage in the car, especially since I justbought a 94 TA which may be my new project car. Kinda want to keep this one as street friendly as possible.

I just asked off for Sept 2-7 so I think 9 months in advance better be enough for them LOL. Now I need to get to working and get a trailer!!!
