    I know I drove it around a little at COBO but here is one of three runs around the block I took. This thing is really light and extremely tail happy. Plus I just love the sound of open headers. I haven't wiped the smile off my face yet. The cops actually rolled by really slow while Andria was editing this video.:D

    I am guessing that the pro mod stall converter was caused by low ****** fluid? Sounds and looks KILLER, congrats!

    Keep smiling, I know I would be. -Joe

    Sitting in the garage right on top of the license plate:D The back window is too short for the plaque so I'll have to find somewhere else for it. I also have to get some mirrors, I completely didn't see that white pickup in the beginning of the video. He was directly behind me most of the time.

    Wow, thats a whole lotta motor for one of those and it sure does sound like it too. Nice. I was expecting some tail happiness around those curves and into the driveway. Like how you drove up on the front lawn comin in. Awesome job.

    Haha, thanks Bill. Yeah I drove over the lawn because there are no front brakes. When you put the pedal down it gets from point A to point B rather quickly. I almost overshot the corner on the way back too. The steering isn't nearly as responsive as the throttle:D

    Yeah, Scott. I see what you mean. It looks down right tuff rolling down the street.

    If Andria can't make it and you need a co-pilot, I'm in!

    Scott, that thing has come a ways from the video with the camo flames with the first firing of the motor! Got to be proud.

    I bet that'd be a RIOT down at the Wally World parking lot with a little left turn and a lot of right foot!
