See thats just it, still learning how to drive mine. Every time I try to go at it and the wheels start to hop I just remember how much the freaking moser 9 inch cost me, and how much it would be to replace it!
LCA's and relo brackets coming for christmass...so Ill get the MT's mounted then. She should hook pretty well at that point.

its not a question of if his car is faster

its a question of can he drive it

my car makes 80-90 less hp plus he's geared

good luck finding anyone to take that bet

my only advantage is a good launch and his inexperience

guess theres really only one way to find out...

Well we found out didnt we!
old man had me by a couple cars at the end of the 1/4. couldnt run again so thats where we are.
Primarily it was my inability to hook and inexperience driving. spun all through first and then watching how robs car hooked I actually kinda forgot to keep my foot down...
I ended up watching his car go more than my own tach
So now I need LCA's/relo brackets/shiftlight and more importantly the driver mod.


Oh and rob and I were talking afterwards, did someone actually call me a baby killer? I might have missed that...

wow, your one classy dude thats all I have to say.
Ive actually never had anyone say some **** like that to me, ever. I must say its quite interesting.
that and if you do the math rob was born in approximatly 1967, therefore around 5 at the time of the end of the vietnam war, so Id be surprised if he really remembered alot.
As far as all the bad names soldiers were called its ok, all of us who serve remember them.
So in all seriousness what have you ever done that will be written about in your childrens history books? I mean if you really feel like that cool man its everyones right in this glorious nation to be an ignorant ********, but its not cool to **** around about that **** dude, not cool.
Id try to explain it to you but you wouldnt get it.

This is a strong statement.......but he is totally right.
Hey these guys don't sign up so they can go "kill babies"..give me a break. It is a job and they are doing what they are told and finally they are giving you YOUR freedom in this country. I think you'll understand that when you get older...right now you are just on the hippie train. Peace not War..blah blah ******* blah.

Oh by the way....Rob is ****** old though. hahaha

/\ nice way of summing it up. Winston Churchill(sp?) said that anyone who is 20 and not a liberal has no heart, and anyone who is 40 and not conservative has no brain. Im paraphrasing but I think I got the point across.

Mod list continues. Harlan shift light is on the way. I never really realized how handy these would be!
So whats up mike hows livin?
