Then later the boyz can fill us in on details

Here's the details for #2870, guys......10.74 @ 132 - best pass.

I think I might've gotten the car down to a 10.60 given the weather and track conditions....if....if......I had a 4L80......nuff said - back to the drawing board on the transmission.....

Kevin, thanks again for letting me drive your 441. It was the deciding point for me to build a big cube motor. I'm not at all surprised that you ran in the 10's with that beast.

I echo that Kevin. The car is smooth and the power comes on instantly! Thanks for the short drive around the lot with Pete and it was a pleasure to meet you.

Yeah, Brett... I'm afraid that would happen to me, were I to test drive one of those BIG INCH LT5s. So far I've been able to avoid taking up the offers to drive one. As Bob said, I'd then be mortgaging the house!) But, I think I could break into the 11s with what I have , and that would be good 'nuff for a while...mebby.

The are monsters...to be sure!

By my observation, the key is PIZZA! Everybody I know that owns a pizza place has the $$ for fast cars! Maybe you and I need to open a PIZZA joint, put some serious inches in the motors, (and bigger splines, of course) and kick some azz!

PS: I'd suggest asking Pete to be a partner, but he'd prolly never give up his sheepies, and we just can't have all that stray wool getting in the sauce!
