Yesterday I got the majority of the mounting done for the electric fans. With the grill removed I was able to fit the larger of the two fans up against the radiator and the smaller fan dropped in. Since I only have a cordless drill, the batteries died before I had a chance to finish drilling all my ...

Cadillac

Well, at this point, everyone knows the status of the Caddy. I think this Thursday, I'm going to try and get the electric fans installed, and eliminate the clutch fan. I am also pretty serious about taking some of the money from the sale of the Honda Passport (whenever I sell it) and buying the nece...

Tony should bring his Blazer and see if it's faster than the Prelude....

Can I have my tiresmoke address direct email to two different email accounts? Like if someone sends me an email to my tiresmoke address, can I make it go to both my hotmail account, and my work email address?

TRP on Sunday September 25th

I'll probably race the Caddy. Mark is hoping to have his Nova together. I'm sure Dave will have the Chevelle.

I might race the S-10 if John brings his 442...

I probably won't race this one, it's not fast. It's got 175hp and 185 lbs of torque and it weighs over 4000 lbs... = high 17's. It's nothing but an investment. I'll send Andy a picture to post a link to. Great news today, basically we all just got a significant pay cut here at work. :( Awesome. -BP

Done deal. I'm now the owner of a nice 1995 Honda Passport, which I'm intending to sell quickly once I do a couple little things...

There's a guy at my work, Ted, that I'm helping with his cam swap on his '71 Vette. He has a 1995 Honda Passport that he's looking to trade me for my F150 and $500 from me.
It's got 115k and is in good shape (no rust). If his wife will let him, the deal should be done this week.

The Saturn is the Ecotec motor, but no way it's slower than 17.50s. And the Mopar ran 16.8's Andy, I think that's faster than your Lumina and Mark didn't even take out his spare tire.... And I don't think the Beretta would be any faster than 16.6's... How about some hadicaps for the Beretta, like a ...

I think Dave is making fun of how slow your Lumina is. I'd make him prove it to you heads up. :twisted:

I think the Lumina / Dodge Ram / Beretta should all go heads up in a Cheeseburger triangle...

Heads Up Racing...

Ok, so I got spanked by the Dodge, but I'm thinking we should set up a few more Cheeseburger Challenges over the next couple months as prime racing weather approaches... For instance: Amy's Saturn vs. Colleen's Van S-10 vs. 442 El Dorado vs. Roadmaster Wagon Beretta vs. Lumina Feel free to add to th...

:( Ford = Loser Mopar = Winner Mark's predictions were pretty much right on the money with the Dodge pulling an unexpected 16.86 out of his hat and the F-150 ending up with a low 17.3 pass. We were rained out after three passes, but there was no way I was getting .3 faster without NOS or maybe the b...
