Projects Big daddy's 1960 El Camino

Yea, but the fun part is not buying it at the pump, its burning it to go fast.

Going fast has always had a price tag on it. Speed costs, how fast do you want to go? You step up and spend your money to go as fast as you want. I've been there and done that.

Most of my go fast moments are in my history. I've exchanged going fast for going more often and going farther. Its a trade off I accepted years ago in order to still be able to play with cars. The coupe has a manual trans, I have the motor dialed in to run very well on the 87 octane junk. The manual trans allows me to have a little fun banging gears, even if I'm the only one that knows I'm racing. That allowed me to drive my coupe and my truck 8,700 miles last summer.

I stepped up and spent my money to go as fast as I wanted to go. I do enjoy watching you guys go as fast as you want to go too, but quit crying about how much it costs to go fast.

 

Good write up on initial, mechanical, and vacuum advance. https://www.onallcylinders.com/2015...rstanding-vacuum-advance-and-why-you-need-it/

Interesting to read the comments and see how many want to argue and prove they can't even understand something as simple as timing advance.

 

Great news, don't have the setting channel to put the door gl*** in my car, went to Lowe's to buy some plexigl***, yeah that ain't happening, $100 for a 2'X3' piece, that's what I pay for a 3'X5' sheet of laminated gl***. So I called the drag strip and asked if I have to have door gl*** to race in the straight axle mafia race next Saturday, he said nope, run it man!! So hell yeah! Now I'm excited

 

Go man Go. Open window won't slow down a slow car.. LOL

 

Ain't that the truth! Curious to see what it runs.

 

Have the better half take a lot of pictures and post them on here.

 

There’s got to be plenty of used plexi now that Covid dropped sneeze guards required though out the entire restraint any more.

 

Too funny

 

I'll see what I can do, have to be the top of the car so the wheels don't show lmao!

 

I need the sash channels so I can put gl*** in. I'm not gonna **** with any plexigl***, I own Lloyd's autobody & gl***, not Lloyd's autobody & plexigl*** lol

 

Don't let that 4.7 sec. 60 ft. time go to your head! LOL!!!

 

You really think it'll pull a 4 second 60'? Man! I appreciate that!!! Lol... it's an 1/8th mile track, I would **** and fall back in it if it runs a 9.0

 

You got any 1/4mile tracks around there? It's easier for some of us ya-hoo's (me) to gauge performance a 1/4 mile at a time. Would a 9 sec. 1/8 mile time equal a 22.94 sec 1/4 mile time? LOL!!!

 

Wait, only woman flip their story back on to the other person.

 

Yeah Clay City is 1/4 mile. But I'm only going next week because the straight axle group is racing here. Calculator says it's 14 seconds.

 

All I can say is I'm one ugly *****

 

14 second 1/4!when I was a younger fella, was good. So many of my folks I knew were chasing a 13 second 1/4!

 

Hey I could be *****ing about my hemi that needs bigger jets in the secondaries!! And being a ****head to everybody that doesn't tell me what I wanna hear lmmfao!!

 

I know brother! Now these street cars are running what pro stock ran when I was a kid

 

14 sec. is respectable for a car like that. Put bigger jet's in the secondaries and p*** me the Asprin, those 2 thread's make my head HURT!!!

 

Man I love a guy who tells it like it is. You are fricken killing me! I almost spit my beer through my nose.

 

That was a **** show, I had to hit the ignore ****on. I was gonna tell him to set the little red needle on his tach to 3000 and just ****ing deal with it

 

I worked 106 hours this past week at the firehouse my ability to hold back was dwindling lmao!

 

Maybe that will work to your advantage for once…the car may run quicker running away from your ugly ***!

 

I concur!
Get off my lawn!

 

”If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life make a…”

 

No that's where my FAT *** becomes a factor lol. I've stripped just about everything out of the car I could to help, then when I climb in the car makes a grunt sound lol

 

Total **** show and the sequel is still playing now. Told him dont quote my posts anymore and bailed out.

 

Yeah I couldn't take that at***ude, not even over the damn internet.

 

Nothing like ******* off the help. Feel bad for the owner. Lottsa more fun over here.
