FYI they added tonight at Eddyville for T&T at the last minute since they were fearing rain tomorrow so i went down with the drag bike and new engine etc....... 3rd and final pass it ran 5.353 @ 127.70mph.......spinning off the line lol - now that its broke in i can't wait to get a new slick on it and set the bars so it will go straight and turn up the shift light to get it more in the power band......... i'm shooting for 5.20's 
On the car side of things, i ordered my TEA 5.3 heads, S16 cam and a bunch of other goodies from Speed inc and will soon be picking up the rest from Mike @ WS6store very soon
- getting excited!!

i'm planning on waiting until this 09 winter since i'm going to do everything all at once, clutch, rear-end/trans girdle brace, and engine work. Only reason is cuz you have to take the front steering rack out to do the engine work and drop the entire rear end and suspension to do the clutch and stuff so that will suck and take time etc.
But i want it done yesterday lol
Did i hear that your ride is back for sale again? I guess my wife was talking to your mom out at Oskaloosa Care center last week or something

The weather is going to be nice this weekend. Who's doing what this weekend? A few car shows and a swap meet is all i've heard. Oh and Porky's on sat night. I'll be hanging at Porky's more than likely.

Probably something from Karl Chevrolet, cause R and B auto sales is Karls son's dealership. He gets alot of the trade ins that don't make it onto the Karl pre-owned lot.
