Hi Jack...Yep, we got home at about 1:15 AM, tired but fine...Martin got home earlier than me (around 12:15 AM), but we were home later than him because we stopped a few times for food and gas. Don't worry, I did "kewl down"...I admit I was a bit pi**ed off from breaking out on the first run, but mostly from denting my right rear quarter panel on the opened door of the ugly Camaro parked next to my car , but today, I showed it to a friend who's really great in body work and he said it wasn't a big thing to fix and to bring it to him next saturday...
I know my car makes good power and that it's just a matter of getting the rear suspension to work right and also getting used to driving it right...

-->One last thing...Jack, I'd like to get not one, but TWO used rear opening mouldings (L&R) for my car, as both of them are pretty "beat up" from all the years of getting rubbed by the slicks...I'll have them powdercoated semi-flat black and they should look great once installed on the car.
I'll call you tomorrow...

Again thanks for your help this the weekend...

Claude & Claude.

Nice Job Guy's !!!!!! I can only imagine how much work it must take to run that kind of MPH with a 6 banger. I Bet Brian enjoyed wheeling that pass!! I'd say he is a natural.

Jack, do you really think Brian is going to let you turn the wick down???

Looks like all the parts are working well togethor. Now I have a real good idea on how much horsepower that fuel pump I purchased from you will support Next your going to need one of the rear ends like I got for the pumpkin

Congrats to you guys on making the Buicks look good at the track!!!

Congratz to both of you!
Even if the car wasn't coming out of the hole like it should, it was still awesome to see the car fly pass the 100ft mark! Rocketed Pumpkin!
