Very nice! I think I have you beat on lope, but definitly not on the track. 
Very nice car!I almost went stroker when I re-did my motor, but I was a poor 17 yr old kid and could only build up a stock cube. Maybe I can get some nitrous help from you, I have forged internals all broken in now (4k miles) ready to be sprayed. Kind of scared to get the ball rolling on that though.... Speed Inc Powered I see, I got all my parts, everything but the actual motor from there and did the work myself, then drove there for a dyno tune as well! Great guys to work with. Looks like you/speed inc did well!

I should have taken the $ that I put into my 10 bolt rebuild & bought something that I'd never have to worry about again.

Hey, just thought I would let everyone know, not that any of you care but I am engaged as of Saturday night! Still kind of excited about it. Ill have been with her for 4 years this January so I figured it was about time.
Bored at work right now. From what I heard it was supposed to be a work till noon day, NO one is here so we can leave whenever. Wish I would have known that so I didnt waste my gas down and could have slept in. Oh well, going to work for a hour or 2 to get my gas money back and head home. Have a good X-mas all if I dont get on here before then!

Yea, I could have gotten a lot of items instead of the ring. I was looking at getting a new bike, that might get held off for awhile now. She knows the hit I took, and she said she would like to help me out with sometihing like that after the wedding, so maybe I will get one then. Been with her for 4 years now and just cant live w/o her, so the ring took over my priorities. Now, when I am married, I will have leverage when I want something and she says no! "Well, I did by you that ring, so Im going to get this bike for my sanity!"
Hope everyones holidays were great!

Teasing!!!I've been married for almost 4 years, buying Bogarts recently was the first real "cross eyed" look I have gotten for buying car stuff.

Yeah, I'm in the process of the expensive ring mod also. Finally finished paying on it, but haven't given it to her yet. Since its paid for now, I ended up finally getting a set of tires the TA has despertly needed. Next is new exhaust and tuning. Joel, Josh, when are we going to FLP?
