As I hopped in my hotrod for a big exibition burnout a slack jawed yokel asked me "you aren't going to do a burnout are ya? What if you break it?"

I said I built the Dodge thing from scratch and will fix it if I break it! :cheers: :-D

 What? Goggles with nothing to add.Nothing? Now I feel pain. False alarm, it was just gas.



The good Doctor knows what he knows, and knows what he doesn't know - which makes him wiser than me.

Dodge the transmission, screw the diff, clutches are cheap - full speed ahead.

I held it open against the 9K limiter tonight - and I mean I just held it there.  It's hitting on all 4, it doesn't vibrate, the clutch is new, the driveshaft is balanced, it sounds awesome.  

I suspect it's just time I learned how to drive a peaky, tempermental race car.

Hell, I've only got to go a mile with it.

Chris and his wife Kate are on the road home.  The Midget was in full song the length of the Maxton Mile this morning.  I'll let him post particulars, but they left with big smiles.
Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

Great, everyone was hoping the power would be there once the motor had a chance to spool up. 8-)

Hooked up with Chris Saturday morning, cold , wet, and windy. That's a cotton field in the back ground. As hard as Chris tried , he still had an inch of rain water in the floor boards.

91.913 - in 3rd gear - ran out of track.  More when I get back.  I am just beat.

Learned a lot, and met some of the finest folks on earth.
