Yeah,I saw it all. That old cuda was tricked out, they dropped some
serious coin on that! I kept waiting for a Dak to show up during the
concourse at Sonic, but it was a classic car show. The Lightning was One
Upmanship. Took a blower to go fast, and still had to power brake to get
a decent burn-out. I'm hopeing for a solid 14 sec 1/4. I'll settle for
anything in the 14's for now, but I'd like to get the mph #'s up too.
Just a couple more weeks the track opens. I can't wait! Alan S.
