    My wife says I don't listen to her, so this year I'll resolve to pay more attention.

    At least I think that's what she said ...

      Eventually, but the engine and bodywork will be done first. Then I can decide how to make it pretty

        I think I have this too - or at least I am told that regularly.

          It's called selective hearing.

            and Rhonda's is way worse than mine - Gosh I hate repeating myself!

            13 could be a huge year for us - possible move to get everything at one property, get the falcon to dragweek, etc.

            I don't usually do resolutions either - but I would like to make some changes - starting with the shop being 100ft out the back door instead of 8 miles away would sure help make those changes feasible

            (rough calculations say I spend 50+ hours a year commuting to the shop and well over $400 a year in fuel)

              I plan for this to be the last Drag Week for the Malibu, so I will not be sandbagging this year on purpose at least.

                so Jeff - you'll throw up a 9.67 on day one "just to be safe" then let it rip?

                ;-)

                Just don't drop the front end like a hot potato again.

                    I hope to come ready to rip every pass, and just finish the week it ends up how it ends up.

                    It should be a little faster than a .67 the first pass that was pretty soft still. That was a 1.45 60' pass and only reved to 7200 on the shift. Its been 1.36 on the rear tires...... on the Old 18*engine.

                    Looking for .20's and 30's for the week if its in the heat like last year. Not promising but its within reason....

                        Or - it really doesn't seem like nagging when I'm not listening anyway.

                            I resolve to do all I can to be at Drag Week 2013, and see Jeff run all out all five tracks.

                            (I'll be the one running 16's)
                            Drag Week 2012 (wet paint and no transmission but finished) Drag Week 2013 Daily Driver finished in middle of pack (again) Drag Week 2014 #56 of 126 Daily Drivers. (getting closer to the 32)
