Default Finally, ready for track 4/1/09
i finally have the car ready for the track this wednesday, April 1st...of all days its gonna be on April fools day lol I havent ran since late January. I added my e-fan, 170 amp alt, and full rear suspension (installed and set up by me and a buddy), and an aluminum ds...after taking my time doing these mods, i ran into other problems...my t-stat housing was leaking so i fixed it...then my water pump went bad, so i replaced it....then my t-stat housing started to leak again!!! Well, i had a defective t-stat housing...got a new one again and FINALLY, no more leaks...I'll be at the track this wednesday and i HOPE that everything falls into place and i acheive my 12.9X or better!!!! Wish me luck!!! Weather is not the best and humidity is a lil high...we will see!!!

thanks guys...i really appreciate the comments

Ive searched many different forums and think that the record for the fastest stock uncracked, unopened motor 5.0 is a 12.5 @ 107 mph from racer Bob Cosby...that is pretty darn fast for just minor bolt ons!!

Have some faith!

You never know when the mountains will crumble and the sea's will roar (that's what my friend says when everything is just right).

You just got to make each pass like it could be the one!
