I'm still around, just not as much as I used to. The TA is sitting in the garage with a 10-pt cage, mini-tubs, full Madman suspension - just need to get motivated to work on it. One day... :D It will be a 6-speed when it goes back together. :drive:

obviously i got it a while back...not to be a dick with a big head, but beacuse i heard that our communist country was going to ban custom plates that referenced Speed, and racing etc.....

and i honestly believed it she had it in her.

thanks Tim :)

it is officially an 8 second street car. was tight, and had to pedal it but i did make an 8.99 @ 155.66 mph pass today along with 4 other mid to low 9 sec passes. starting line issues..... if i didn't bog on the launch, i was shaking the tires.

now back to street mode to enjoy the car with my son.

mcleod clutch, tick perf. master, ss knob, custom short stick, a friend made it for me. it was based off of a Lou's short stick, just a couple of different angles than the lou's to suit my shifting needs.

in car vids to follow in a couple of days, i am tired!!!!

is your stick crooked pointing toward you (lol) or is it a staight 6" stick? is your clutch a twin disk or single?

we have similar setups.

what is your spring/shock combo if you mind me asking front and rears?

what gears? 28" tire?

sorry for all the questions but i like to put things in perspective for what i eventually will do ya know.

my goal one day is to run 9's for a true street car w/ an m6 of course :)
again, congrads that is such a great accomplishment

mcleod soft lok
stick is angled where i like it, similar to a lou's, but closer to me. when i bang 2nd hard it knocks the bezel loose to give you an idea.

3.89 gear, yes 28x10.5 slick

thanks!

Notice the thread title, I was discreet lol!!! Maybe now the car will be worthy of a mag feature, I can always dream!

Thanks all! Yeah its been a time coming. To much playing around in between

I will have a new thread to post in a few days. Just to busy to do it right :shhhh:

Like I said before, it just takes time, and you'll get that slip. :)

Have any plans for the winter? or just a freshening up of the motor?

What did you have to do to get those 97'+ taillights to work in your car? I like the change;)

it has been so long, that i forget, lol!!! I think i had to run an extra wire, with the newer harness. like i said i forget. do a search on cz, that is how i found it back in the day, it might have even been shoe boxes website.

i will have the trans gone thru. it has been 2 years of beating on it hard.

11-14-2009, 07:45 PM
No et was fun to go to! It almost always is except for the one in sept. That was a joke!

I ran it all motor the last 2 weeks with a new gear in the rear. Definitely a hoot to drive!

I just need to throw the wheels on it and drop it on the ground for some street cruising :)

liberty's built the trans up for me. it is comprised of a compliment of upgraded liberty's components and stock gears and such. they also faceplated the trans as well.
