Yep the tranny is fixed, but there's one problem with it. Its bone stock!!!! thats got to change. And I still need my bottle strapped on there, after talking to rob on saturday I'm kinda scared about that though. I don't want my truck to blow up.


RICH: its funny you say that, cause I got plans for the beast now. Once the new lightnings come out with the new body style I'm going to get one of those, and then I'm turning this pig into a flyin a$$ lightning. 351 stroke to a 396, trick flow intake and heads all prted and polished, with a novi 2000 on a cog belt pulley system. If that setup doesn't run 8's I don't know what will with this truck. those little 306 mustangare running low 9's with a serpantine belt novi 2000 and allot of restrictions. thats the great thing about the lightning class, no restrictions hardly. HEHEHEHEHEHEHE. D day begins as early as two years from now. I hope they make a 2003 lightning, for my 99's sake anyway. later guys

This plan right now, is one my current buget status. who knows, maybe if I make a few hudred thousand I'll go after him. I got the friends and connections to get it done, I just need to cash now. HAHAHAH to run 6's you have to have well over a hundred grand in a car to do that. I'm only 19 (20 this month) years old still.

I'll be at Byron again this Saturday Joe. Let's do breakfast and then go kick some more Z-28 *** !!!! It'll be a lot cooler too so we should get some VERY good time slips.
e-mail me if you're interested. Later.

Rob:
I went to union groove later on that night and what a joke. they had the street racing going on and those people just **** me off. but what I was going to say is, that up there it was so much colder and I really think the truck picked up some power form that cold wether. it was wild, and the track hooked up pretty damn good.

I'm ready to go again, I'll call you and let you know if I'm going. we have to get my buddies car done this week and bring it up there to tune it in for WFC. should be an interesting week to see this thing get done, HAHAHAHAHA.

by the way, I raced an silver honda S2k at the track and I gave him seven spots and the bust and I still passed him up about half track and the guy at the end of the track said I had about 6 or 7 car lengths on him at the end. It was some funny chit just to see the looks on those peoples faces when they see a truck hauling that much a$$. I just wish they had the clocks on so I could get a time, casue it sure felt allot faster.

P.S. wether channel said saturday morning is going to be sunny and about 55 to 60, so I game if thats true.
later
