I might have to take you up on that Brandon. I just tried to source a new bushing for the tailshaft and nobody has had any luck replacing it without ruining the bushing....

Faaawwwk....

Well, special props go out to Brandon for saving my *** and selling me his broken T56. Now I can rob the tailhousing off that trans and have the car ready to race for the upcoming weekend. Just waiting on the new yoke to get here, maybe tomorrow...?

lol, I didn't think it sounded like my car, sounded like a V8 to me. The snorkel thing was funny, I crack a grin everytime I see that thing.

On a good night he usually runs low to mid 11's. As for the snorkel, it is no different than what is run on a dragster. Gotta get air to the power plant.

It just looks funny.
That's pretty good. I would think he would be alittle quicker then that since his car weighs like what nothing, I don't know. But I bet it's fun to drive

LOL,,, yeah that Fiero cracks me up everytime I see it also. Just looks weird with the snorkel on a rear engined car lol.... I think he was running mid to low 12's last year because I remember lining up with him numerous times back then. He ran an 11.85@112 against me on that first run before I broke. Must have been busy on his car this past winter.....

I bet he felt good to finally beat me.

I was planning on going but the weather doesn't look good at all. I don't think they'll be making any runs out there today and if they do, they prolly won't be able to finish.
