i just want it to run 7.70 in 1/8 mile track
Heck, I'll race ya on a skateboard if I have to!!!!! If it goes so fast it almost sets your hair on fire I'm probably involved in it or trying to put a package together to try it!!!!! We run the Super Gas (9.90 class) drag racing, and a 10.90 class car. Got fired from my own circle burner team summer before last when I had a stroke on the way home from the races one night, and the Salt Flat car is partly on the chassis table but mostly on the drawing table... On the planning sheet is a tube chassis, 'glass Merc bodied Nostalgia racer... and in my spare time I build hot rods..... Finally, there are three or four other projects in various stages of planning and awaiting funding and/or partnership agreements.....Quote:

Just a matter of time management.... When I had the big shop, I was known to have 6 or 7 projects all going at the same time.... Much of what I do takes a lot of planning and research, so when a project gets to that point I move on to something else. Also while waiting on parts or letting welds cool or primer dry I work on something else. The Ranchero is on the chassis table, and only used for my own time, my version of a day off..... Because of some physical limitations I can't be on my feet for very long, well most of last week I would work on Tom's coupe when I was on my feet, when the pain sets in then I would get on my roll around seat and work on the sheet metal for the 'maro..... In the mornings and evenings I do my parts research, office stuff, and drafting table duties.... Nothing to it....Quote:
