You'd be surprised at how inexpensive it is, compared to keeping a low 11 or a high 10 second drag car running.

Once you get rid of all the wiring associated with lights, coolant sensors, horn, emissions, etc., delete the HVAC and ABS, pitch the hood latches and all the headlight associated brackets and finally build a nice, big duct to feed lots of cool air to the radiator, sanitary kind of takes care of itself.

And thanks, Jeff for sending Marcus our way.

I thought long and hard about it Robert. My car was in no shape to be seen in public.

Glenn said it was a great time, though. We need more of you guys to come to a race.

We'll be Eagle's Canyon in Decatur in October.
