We have a few things on the bucket list, lol! Gonna try running a completely new drivetrain, rad to rear and switch to a stick with one and put a racepak and do some rewiring in another. Gotta have at least one or two to bring to Gainsville! hope we dont run out of time

Finishing the body on the Buick and hopefully throwing some more power at it. That means I get my quality bonding time with my car.

When I first started racing I used to think that winter time was when you could slack off, save up money and get ready for the next season. In truth, winter time is when you spend the most, upgrading and looking for more et because you know that when the season begins at the Winternationals everyone will be locked and loaded and dialed on kill and you had better be ready..

Most expensive winter I can remember in a long time. Maybe now I won't have to de-tune it to hook it. Don't know if the big cam core will be worth anything.
If I get .06, that's only about $1800.00 per hundredth. LOL
