Default Re: Fairmont U/S Build AKA Craigslist Racer

Last Saturday I ran my first passes with the Fairmont on a real drag strip with clocks! Nothing fell off, the car steers, stops and more importantly goes...really quick.

I made four hits and they were all under the index.

My first burnout in over 35 years, amazing how you get out of practice especially with a 4 speed. Came back to me with a little coaching from a friend.

Looks like I'm done with updates for now.

I appreciate all the advice, mentoring and encouragement from the Class Racer folks.

Everytime I get onto the Class Racer website the first thing I do is look at the Class Racer Builds. I'm inspired by, Robbie Racer, Dave Muller, Mark Yacavone, Jeff Lee, Pinballer, and lots of others.

Thanks to Fred Rector, Gary McGlasson, Sean Marconette and Robb Youngblood for their help. Nice to have Pro's in your corner.


Thanks folks, see you in September at the Salt Lake divisional. Got to get my feet wet sometime.
