Wish I could get mine to strip. Oh drag strip,,, she would never go for drag either, but if I was married, lord for bid, gets 1 aesthetic, I would test her abilities in my Nissan 1.8 liter in a mile and 1/2. I did meat my 1 only wife from Tennessee and for her to drive to high school was a new 1973 GTO,, brand new. When I got dun with it, a pile of Garbage Truck Only. She will never see me, myself, and or I, or my self mobile Crittter again cause she has never seen any of em. I do need that walker for my left foot,,, broken. If I do find a female of interest to share the Critter with,,, 3, I will do so. But till then, it is me and the cat. 4 legged one. Hard to reach the peddles, so moving front in 3 feet forward. Pics coming when Queen arises.

the only way my wife would go down a dragstrip would be if I duck taped her to the seat an put an egg under the gas pedal.

Not yet Marc. Been over three months now. My insurance paid $14,756 for repairs (way over original estimate). I will probably go to Ocala as a spectator only.

I feel bad for you, I always say the track is much safer than the street that's why my demon never goes on the street thats all i need is someone hitting that car. i am getting exited to hang out with everyone and run my wifes car my demon will not be ready in time.

Nice.

That car is beautiful too. One of these days I'm going to take you up on your offer and come visit. Maybe this winter when ya'll are still racing down there and there's nothing to do up here.
