Jack , It sure felt like it after the DG requested teardown.

I guess it DOES correct to a teen run.

No more West Coast rule book , I guess. I was hoping they'd open it up for me.

I can't believe they picked you for teardown, didn't you already tear down for the record in january of this year ? We all know it can happen any time and accept that , but i wouldn't have picked you

now put it in the winners photo

Excuses time. Tried to bump it in to pick up my lights .Went in deep. Backed out quick enough,but couldn't get it back in low . The tree was coming down .Left in 2nd gear
All over.

Probably would have got tossed anyway.

Not the place for a rant about how the slower cars got screwed with no DEEP staging..
Some other time.

Tibor lost a super close one. We're outta here...

Big Boy,

You da man.....

Change your combination from a stick to an automatic plus do ALL your own work...

AND STILL #1 QUALIFIER..

My hat's off to you...

Take care,
Bob

Can you tell us how much quicker that car will run with which transmission (4-speed or auto), or is that "classified?"

Congratulations on a stellar performance, regardless of the driving glitch... You da man, for sure!!!! (with apologies to Bob Shaw....)

Actually my friend, I'm hoping someone else will be making the next attack .
I just took the car up there to document it's potential.
I'm wanting to keep it as fresh as possible for a new owner.
I would be better off to stay away from sea level tracks too (ie Fontana)
Thanks for asking though.
