Getting closer but yet so far!!!!

Well hopefully in a few weeks I will not be seen outside of a racecar again on the starting line.

I am on my way to pick up my car that is partially completed to finish mounting my seat and probably my wheelie bars. I am trying to keep my composure since this started over two months ago and I am still not racing. *GRRRRRRrrrrr* :evil:

Hope to make some of the races before the end of the season.

Now I am trying to figure out what class I am going to race in 2006.

IT NEVER GET EASY DOES IT. OUR CHEVELLE IS A PROBLEM CHILD AND EVERYTHING SEEMS NOT TO WORK RIGHT AND THE CAR IS ALMOST DONE, IF IT AINT ONE THING ITS SOMETHING ELSE.
KISS IS THE WAY TO DO THE BU

What scares me most about your pic, Is there is alot of motor and alot of NOS and NO bars up front? :shock:

Safety 1st. Man I love big blocks, and G-bodys. Take your time it will come together.

I will keep it short and sweet....

1970 Z28 Camaro (with a solid front bumper not a fan of the split bumpers....shhhh don't tell Monty LOL)

Engine: 572 Big Chief with 2 stages

Trans: FB Pro Max Ultra Glide w/Variable Stall Control

Rear: Dana 60

Tires: right now 33x10.5w on Weld Alumastars. I am considering running a true 10.5 tire and messing around in Outlaw Limited Street down south.

With the W's on the car I could race Super Street but I am chassis limited 7.50's so NPS is also looking very appealing to me too. :wink:

A year ago I would have never thought I would be in this position right now so soon. This put me 2 years ahead of schedule.

Looking good Eric, keep us posted

Looks good Eric. If you need a place to store that motor just let me know :wink:

Sledgehammer · **Posted:** Oct Tue 04, 2005 10:47 am

Thanks Shannon....I will miss you and the other Limited Street guys. Cause now I am too big to play in that sandbox. LOL Not that I got to race much with you guys over the past few years. Going back to my EZ5016 days.....whew..that feels like ages ago.

I will be interested to see what happens over the next few months with the associations and go from there.

I will keep everyone posted...>I am happy to say I have my car and stuff back in my possesion....I reclaimed my car this morning at approx 1am and didn't get home till 3am...loooooooong story. I just hope it didn't ruin a friendship in the process.

Time will tell.

Rick..the way things are going right now.....time is just moving slow. I have had all this equipment since the end of July and it is driving me crazy that I am not already out racing. I had planned on going to Orlando and running Heavy Street....but since I was not a priority and little things still need to be done...it is not happening.

I hope over the next week or so I can get one of the local chassis guys to squeeze me in to get my wheelie bars completed and I need to make a list of everything else that needs to be completed besides mounting my seat. I hope to try to make the Shakedown at E-town at the end of the month if possible and if I get some seat time!!!....I also need to get my license! So I will be a little busy that is all depending on if I can get the work done to make it happen.

Thanks....it is nice to finally have something that someone else would want instead of some visually challenged moderately fast street car.
