    12.65:clap:

    I lost the first round. I knew I would as I lined up against the car noboody else would. :rolleyes: I almost had him though:evilsmile I stabbed at the line when I should have kept it floored:slap: I dialed a 12.65 ran a 12.73 but that might as well have been a second. Anyway I got all my wiring problems fixed after 2 days of probing and making my own diagrams. I installed a new turn sig switch, a Flasher, repaired the burnt wiring and a bad ground:whew: I got that new cam and beehive valve springs yet and a ram air system. I will run 11s all motor before it is all said and done. Not to mention I will still drive it any distance I want. HELL YEA!!!!

    good run. you gotta run the best eventually. keep it up and pretty soon you'll be the guy people will try to avoid.remember you always have a 50/50 chance of winning. just run your own race.(y)
