    I really hate changing clutches so I feel for the Freak its happened to me before (starting in 3rd) not a pretty sight. Arron I would have loved seeing the faces of the people in their daily commuters when they came up on you two. That video was priceless, but I think I smell a rematch coming.............

    It's been three times... At the first event, it was the fastest street car there by a cool half second. I think it ran like a 12.95 or something. Now days, it's not even close... Guys like DW are turning 11s.... Depressing.

    In any case, it sure is nice to see a bubble top on the road. I can't wait till it's done with that show car **** so Aaron can really drive it. That will change the world.

    Yeah powerbraking doesn't work too well in the punk since it doesn't weigh anything. The brakes obviously work well becasue you can see the front tires sliding. Those Radir slicks are pretty grippy even when they are cold. I was just trying to keep the car running in the cold and giving it a little throttle. I felt the *** end starting to slide sideways so I let off because I didn't know what Billy was doing next to me and I didn't want to hook again and hit him. I didn't think we needed any more wipe out footage in front of Billy's shop.

    Ryan, I don't think my car did too bad with 8 carbs, no choke, and 5 month old gas on a 20 degree day.....especially since the linkage came loose and it was only running off of the left 2 center carbs. ha ha ha

    It wasn't really running that great with that old gas in there, but when I got it home and got the fresh gas ran through it and tightened up the linkage the throttle was a lot more crisp. I know excuses, excuses. Maybe next time.

    I suppose I could drop in a 500 horse small block chevy and a 4 barrel with an electric choke to make it a little more responsive on those cold December afternoons. ;)

    Ken, I think the car is going to Dallas solo. I am pretty comfortable in my garage this time of year.:D

    Are we dating now?? Sweet! You know I just had to rib you a little Ryan. You are a much more skilled driver than I, you can have your turn at the wheel of the Punk next time, you could probably do a more impressive burnout than me anyday in any car.

    I think I can safely say though that more stupid things have been done in my bubbletop than ANY of the other ones that have been built. Ha Ha Ha

    Steve, the throttle and brake are close enough to you that a hand control installation may not be necessary. ha ha ha

    this was more of a slap fight than a full-on brawl, but hey, it's december, almost anything car related is entertaining when it's cold out...

    Ruler!

    monsterflake,
    What are you using for a movie maker? I have "Pinnacle Studio MediaSuite ***anium Edition" that you can have if you could use it. I bought it two years ago and I have never used it. We will be in the STL next week and I can bring it and drop it off to you.

    Chris
