Looks good Tom, when you going for 7s

We should line them up one day for a nice off the line launch picture, at least I can keep up for 60 feet or so.

You kill my 60ft times...generally 1.51...this one was 1.42...best for the combo.....

This car is finished (except for an AtW)

If I live long enough...I want to build a 2800lb ride.

I thought it was finished 4 years ago

I'm pretty sure you have enough years left to build another car, even though its kind of hard to beat what you have there already..
