While I was watching the vid I was thinking damn that sounds good through my shitty speakers, and probably sounds godly in person!

Do you guys have any old school muscle for autox challenges? Goodguys autocross at Indy is back in Sept! Love to see one of ur builds in person.

Maybe I will be able to afford some sway bars for the Bel-Air this year for it lol.

We have been considering a build for the Goodguys events. Not sure if it will happen or not, but you never know

I would just bank on Mary's car now that shes running one of your mills.


I saw Danny's impressive finish at the Optima event, does this mean he will be at the Optima Challenge in his white car and this one? Dont know if you were there but this should bring back memories:
