Awesome color choice. I bet it looks good being towed by the Lightning.

Until you get to turn 1.
Congrats, looks like it'll be fun.
P.S. What was your time in the 1/4 at Bristol in the truck?

You should be recieving you gold chains, silk button down shirt and Boston:3rd stage 8 track in the mail.
Seriously.... goot luck. As I stated in the PM, there's a few really good drivers in AS running them, so there's planty of info to be had. Sam had a hand in them as well, and if you plan on running r-comps, I recommend getting some magnesium wheels for it. get rid of some weight to lug around.
congrats!

My best of the 2 was 13.786 at 104.21 mph. They were making us launch from the side of the track and we had to work our way into the groove. It would be a great engine for your Cobra build.

Heh, I'm sure it would be. Not sure the blower would fit in the bodywork though...

Avoid vettes at all cost IMHO. Buy an E36 M3 with four doors and not only will you have a fast stock car, but a sophisticated daily driver as well........
*******EDIT EDIT EDIT......SAVE YOURSELF NOW and sell that american T*^D before it breaks......Go German!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Rife, I was too late to save the young one.

sophisticated = interior falls apart when you touch it?
Anyway, I think you are a bit late to the party.
