Good luck in whatever racing you do !!![/QUOTE]

I doubt I will do much racing anymore. Im getting to old to do all of that work....LOL...and its gotten way to expensive for what you could get in return other than the friendships, and self satisfaction. Im leaning to a nostalgia Jr. stocker ( the old stuff like 55-57 Chevys, etc. for the Mid Atlantic Nostalgia Drag Racing Association. Its a bracket style race for cars that just LOOK like the old stuff and its just fun and no pressure. Its about 12 races a year. Besides that I still ride the Harley a lot and will probably move to Fla. if the real estate market comes back so I can sell my place. Im also looking for a decent 1966 Corvette Coupe to make a nice street ride out of thats almost affordable. I will see you guys someplace this year. You just get that back well and remember we are not getting any younger. T

Hi Bart......I dont know yet. Don sold "BIG RED" and we are trying to get his son in laws Dart engine fixed. The original engine builder didnt do some things that he is allowed to do and should have done. (to much deck, Head C.C,s way off, etc.). If so it will probably just be on Friday the 17th. Im not interested in Top FOOL, Pro mod, etc.

Terry , I have a neighbor around the corner from me that has 28 or 30 , 63 to 67 vettes and most are reasonable. Give me a call sometime and let me know just what type of deal you want . You probably remember him because that is the only type race car he would own. He used to run super rod with a 65 conv(w/hard top) called HOT BLOODED.My cell is 252 525 0550.
