    Congrats on your 10 second pass. You made it to the tens and still have a car that is a "hot rod" and not a drag car. The fact it is a true street car is a big accomplishment.

    Thanks to all the Texas group for the hospitality!

    You weren't being to hard on that now were you......I saw those pics recently where you can see the coupe is really hooking up......by the way where is that video of the coupe going down that old dragway with the trees down the side, I think your family was doing the video, I like that one but can't find it again.

    Ouch, but awesome!

    Hang it on the wall like a stuffed deer!

    "Man, my car spins the wheels through 1st and 2nd......."

    "Oh yeah, well mine hooks up and takes off while you're spinning, in fact it hooks so hard it spit out pinion once (points to back wall of broken parts)...."

    Yikes!

    Did your transmission survive the blow to it's output shaft as the pinion tried to escape?

    Thanks Glen. I'm happy to have hit my goal. 10 second street car w/ ladder bars, buggy spring & a stick.
    So sad for the sacrificial 9 inch though. Cast case, no pinion support, true-trac & slicks.
    What the fuck was I thinking hahaha!

    David, it sucked to see the carnage, but I know you'll get it back together with the right parts...

    Man, it was so damn cool to see you hit your 10-second (10.96) goal on your first pass! So many people knew you were shooting for it and the crowd erupted when your time showed up on the board... CONGRATS!! :)



    Hot-rod Roadster (Gary) posted some great pics of your car---

    If your breakin stuff out back it means you got some serious shit up front, now you can get the fuel stuff fixed they way you want , get the rear end re-done and haul ass.
