Drag Racing !!!!

Josh, when am I going to see you at Greer Drag way??? I am still running the 240SX but I switched to a power glide transmission with a 5000 stall. The times got more consistant with 1/8 miles times of 8.7 at 95 mph...yea 95 mph,,,thats speeds of 7.2 to 7.4... I added a 60hp shot of nos that shuts off at 15 psi of boost and now she is a FREAK... I cant wait to see the times and speeds this Thursday night....maybe see ya there

Cat

Hey Bill,
Im not sure yet because the car isnt here... but Everyone is telling me they are gonna give me a hard time about the car not having a Cat... I dont know if they are or not but just incase, Got a website or someone you know That might mail me a "CAT" you know im not looking for a CAT.... more like a test pipe. If they do give me a problem I just want something that looks like a CAT, maybe the guys at Karguard could weld me up something... I dont know.

Just want to get your brain turnning cause its about to be here and Im gonna have to register none-op so they call it till I get the tint of the front windows and Till i can get the horn working, so if they stick me for the CAT too im gonna have to act within 60 days or its 60 more dollars out of my pocket... and with gas being 7 bucks a gallon Im sure you understand.

That's Awesome Bill! Super fast times for a street car! I was on Vacation last week, just now getting back into the groove! I hate I missed your run I would have loved to have been there. When are you planning on going to Ware Shoals? I might talk Chase into going Did you make an adaptor for the glide or did you buy something aftermarket? Thanks Josh
