    • How did I get to be sooooo old and still have so much to learn?

      Just got back from Norman's where a .750 bottle cost $15.99 and a 1.75 bottle cost $18.99 - all these years and I never realized how good the quanity break is on the big boy bottles

                    • ^^^ depends on what you're planned driving pattern is going to be. Drag radials don't have long treadlife. You can always try them (since you have them) and see how you like them. When the cords are showing - get another set!
                      There's always something new to learn.

                          Some people don't put that many miles on their rides without 3,000 plus on PT

                          • 56 has been somewhere between 10-15K the last 4 years



                            but 56 is a driver not a collectable

                                Bob,
                                That is very impressive. I only wish my five five was that fast. I am working on the rear suspension right now and adding some homemade Caltrac's. Maybe in Ohio, you can give me some pointers and head me in the right direction. If I could get down to your 60 ft times, I might actually be able to race someone and get out of my own way !

                                Looking forward to seeing the 56 run this year.
