Re: Corvette Advice
Awesome color choice. I bet it looks good being towed by the Lightning.

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

Re: Corvette Advice
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...jcoatney wrote:It would be a great engine for your Cobra build.

Re: Corvette Advice
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........

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