      Works better with the FWD conversion . . .


      New rule: All DW '14 competitors are required to wear chin beards and flip-flops . . . . If you can't grow one, a chin pastie will be available through a pop-up ad at Hot Rod.com for three easy payments of $20 . . . .

            Mavis goes back to the old MS-DOS days...

            DW2015 - Finished in 1 piece (for once!)

              I may criticize Mavis Beacon's ability and methods to teach typing, but I'd NEVER stoop to comparing any of them to Adolph Hitler's evil, murderous regime!
              Why think when you can be doing something fruitful?

                LOL
                I did that one better. The healing medicine applied was standing next to my rebuilt Drag Week small block Mopar, while it wailed away on the pump to 600+ at 6500! Torque was 500+ from 4200-6400. Consider the GM virus eradicated!

                        • Rumor: Due to budget cutbacks, Drag Week will only be at Gateway this year. The driving portion will consist of X number of laps on the adjacent NASCAR oval with direction changes every 1/2 hour to promote even tire wear. Fire hoses will also be on standby to simulate 'adverse weather'.

                            Gawd.... I hated it when they did that for NMCA/NMRA True Street at Chicago and Charlotte....
                            It's really no different than trying to glue them back on after she has her way.
