    Did you ever hear the saying if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything at all??? :nonono:



    Is the car carb'd or FI? What's it trap in the 1/8th?

    If he's a real racer, he is. Speedo will tell you a lot of things.

    i'll find out more when the weather cears up...he's running high 6's on motor...

    the tranny is a 3 speed with one of those wacky reverse shifters where 1 is on top, it goes 1-2-3- with 3 being on bottom...and its kinda sticky going back up to 1,N,P,R....we think its the linkage but we may just try a new shifter....

    but it may not look like much but its a monster

    Well we understand its done by time, but mph is usually right there on the timeslip at least.
