Doesnt have to be pretty just has to go fast.
Well heres a picture from this 2006 dragfest in Terrace Bay.
I have so far not made a pass to what i consider the car to be running at its best. I was plagued with electrical problems all weekend making 1 pass of 13.4..not sure of the mph as the car overheated and i never received my time slip. Better luck next yr. Anyway..here is the picture...
Heres some pictures of my 2nd year in an event called TERRACE BAY DRAG FEST. Its the closest drag strip..or made up drag strip we have to my town of Thunder Bay. I ran 13.4 @ 104mph....best run out of 6 runs...3 runs were over 16 second passes. I couldnt figure out the transmission kickdown cable..and things were just thrown together as you can see, we didnt have enough time to finish the body work and get a coat of primer even on the car. The differnet fender is because my drunk friends decided to fall against it the first year and left a huge dent in the morning for me to find :) Hopefully this year will be a lot better.
So...im sure everyone is wondering what the deal is with the car and whats done to it. So heres a list for this year and what will be done for next.
