grand daddy of all drag races this weekend, starts Weds., U.S. Natl's in Indy. Ray Barton invited me to go but i've got our race track booked this Thurs. for a private test session for a bunch of my customers. it's an awesome event if you can make it.

I feel the same way. I hope my car is still a yellow 95 ZR-1. It's been since Oct 3 of last year that I last saw it. I vaguely remember it. Can't wait--just in time to return home to another hurricane threat.

Good Luck

The reason I was able to justify it was because of HER shopping.

I'm in for Friday night pizza.

Home Run Inn Pizza in Addison,IL is one of our own ZR-1 guy and is close to Marc's shop (same town).
We could possibly get Marc to show after Ted pick's up his Z.
About 7pm.

Ted and Karoline,

Have a great and safe trip to Chicago and back, I certainly wish you guys still lived here but that the AF for ya.

If you haven't been to an NHRA event, Indy is the one to go to for sure, but I would suspect your anxious to get the new "Beast" home.

Enjoy that sucker, maybe I'll get a ride in it someday.

I feel your pain. Marc had mine for 5 months with porting and headers plus a few misc items. But I must say the work is exellent. Saw your Z there both times. Drove mine home the 825 mi. with a big grin !! Tim

Please don't get my statement wrong.It's well worth the wait. Marc is very meticulous and the final product is proof.
My "PROJECT" was and still is a bit of a challenge. "We boldly went where some others wouldn't " ........was that a quote from Star Trek ?

Sorry for interupting the thread.

Frank...that's why my car is there too. I know the man has mad skills. I have wanted this since I went to my first Gathering and got a ride or two in modified ZR-1s. Marc being meticulous is an understatement. This car will be perfect!!!

Pizza on Friday sounds good to me!
