Hi everybody! [Image: biggrin.gif] I FINALLY got 100% done with my forced movement (Ah, the joys of working for the man) and even got the net back up! I have a new mailing address (see Vendor's Section) and more room. I fell FAR behind in box shipments, but I should be all caught up once these last 3 go out tomorrow morning. You guys do ALOT of damage in 2.5 weeks!! Glenn sells his car to Scott, who is the only man on earth (other then me [Image: biggrin.gif]) who DIDN'T need another car! Bob's jibbering about 12's and for sale in the same sentance, a raffle happened that I couln't get in on (www.paypalsucks.com), a dyno day got rolling, Cecil II smack-talk reached a new high, and Tony's talking like he has 3 TC's (so you took my advice and turned the "parts car" into a race car, huh? [Image: wink.gif]) Man I need to stay up on things more! It was nice to read for about 2 hours though... OK I'll go away now, but for those of you interested, Layla still don't move (the new engine is STILL in Liggy's closet!), the 83 got moved to Longview (my eventual permanent home), and I set a new L-View to B-Ham record (255 miles in 2 HRS 58 MIN, 65mph average through Olympia, Tacoma, Seattle, and Everett). It's nice to be back!

You must have been going so fast you blew the sprinkles off of every cop's donut all the way. I travel down to Portland quite often at all hours and days and I've always been tracked by a cop at least 4 times; according to my Passport (greatest road tool on the planet).

Naw Matt, I left L-View at 4AM [Image: biggrin.gif] I took the SHO and flew to B-Ham like a banshee. I did about 90 most of the I5. Only saw 1 cop (In Mt. Vernon of all places!) SHO still has it, if only I could get that motor in my TC!

Then turbo it. That would be really bad. Two years ago at Carlisle there was a Taurus wagon with w SHO drivetrain it with a turbo. he did 408 WHP on the dyno.
NO TC and NO headaches.

What are you talking about and how do you know how many cars I have/need?

12's are a HUGE stretch for me. The local 5.0 guys tell me they are .2 / 2 mph quicker at Cecil, but thats still only a low 13.

I've given up on selling the car, I'm just pulling wjat I want and hauling the rest to the crusher.

I metioned that in the other thread. If it hits a 13.1X, on goes someones skinnies, out come the passenger seat, drain the radiator, off with the hood, trunk lid, whatever it takes to see that 12.9999999999

After that Scotts up [Image: biggrin.gif] I really dont hold much hope for a 12 with my junk, 3 1/2 tenths is HUGE.

That's what I'm talking about! [Image: wink.gif] Not making excuses, but remember.....I will be 5 hours from home for this, and this is my only ride home (and even worse, my wife's ride home).....Now if you let me bring it back with me, I will take it to the track on KILL [Image: biggrin.gif]
