My my how out of touch we are. Sponsorship is a nice thing for racing, being on a team does wonders 14'* were last year, before all the new toys. (rockers/cam/nitrous/hurst/lsd/etc.

Amen to that, Russ. I even begged. Glad to hear the successes with the car. Anyone got any links to some more info on it?

Meh... just remember... Speed Costs. How fast do you want to go?
but the costs of speed are much more worth it in a 5.0(just an example) for instance... $5,000 into a 5.0 = low 12'* (at least), or $5,000 + 98 bonneville ssei = 14'*

looks like i bought the wrong car!!!
there'* no substitute for displacement.. a 5.0 vs 3.8.. bet you if I put $5000 into a 440 big block I would woop your 5.0 a$$ Thats apple and oranges.

But you can do lots if you had $5000 to spend.

I'm sure 5 grand could get a Bonny into the 13'* easy enough, maybe 12'*.

You'll know if he is He reads here quite regularly. I doubt he'd be pissed, considering his car is linked at the PA club site. It'* available for the whole world to see.
