Post Lightning haul more than a$$

Haul A$$ in the Morning/Haul a Hot tub in the afternoon.

Couldn't do this in my Saleen. Having a truck really comes in handy. Already hauled a ton of furniture, a waterbed, and now this hot tub.
At some point, I will buy silverwear, food, and a garbage can. But one must have priorities.

Just make sure everything is tied down REALLY tight....

That way when you play with a F body they get 3 times as mad when they get:

1) Beat by a FORD

2) It's a TRUCK

3) It is hauling CARGO!

Right after I put a supercharger on my Dak, I raced 2 Rangers (I was pulling a trailer with carpet)

After they saw me pull them hard, they just acted like they wernt racing... =-)

Superchargers and Trucks... What better way to **** people off? =)

Thumbs up

Nice pic.

Do you have any idea what kind of 1/8 times sc'd Saleens run? (I'm assuming you do because you own one). There was a guy in a new(er) Saleen at the track today (in high 90 degree weather) running 9.0X all day long. I know those things aren't 1/8 racers, but for the price, I somehow expected more. Not a flame in any way; I am just baffled...not that its the first time or anything.

DUCK

Duck,

Never raced it. I actually have never raced at all. I plan on racing the L. Don't know if I'll ever run the Saleen.

IB fast:

Now, I've never raced mine...and I have the S351 not the S351r, but those numbers don't sound right. I don't think the car is quite that fast.

But...I could be wrong.

I raced a 99 Cobra Saleen that was Vorteched, it was even to 60, the I quit racing, atleast thats what it looked like. I think his 60-120 time is about the same as his 0-60 time.

Erik,
LOL, Good luck with the new pad and the hot tub. You made the right choice in purchasing the hot tub first...one needs to have a place to relax after a long day at work

Are you planning on making the trip to N.J. in October ?

Thanks Spiro!!

I don't think I'll be able to make the long haul to NJ. But I'm up for another norwalk event if anyone is interested...NJ is just a lil far...

I think I have someone visiting that weekend also.
