      So I got bored Saturday.. got most things finished on the car.. The usual odds ends to take care of still.. So I decided to have some fun and take a few pictures.. Once again... enjoy.. i know I did..

      Staring "The Big’s" & "The Little’s"


      They needed some heat.. So..
      Who’s got an out of the way place on a labor day weekend that i can practice hole shots?
      ohhh grams on vacation in Maine.. perfect..


      hrmm not enough practice.. Need some street time.. Still at 35psi..

      Oh yea.. Pulls like an animal till 5500 and still wants more.. Too bad.. Rev limiter staying put till after the dyno..

      There is nothing wrong with having a variety of wheels to choose from, but you broke it out with the AREs and in my opinion they became the signature wheel for your car.

      Don't get me wrong, the drag lites are sweet, but the wheels you had on before were SIZZLIN! For what it's worth you car should be nicknamed "Orange Porn" not "Project Bankruptcy"

      Looks good no matter what wheel you put on that car! (As a personal side note, those AREs are the sex on your car)

      NICE CAR!

      What's that boxy thingy hanging down from the backend between the plumbing?

      Maybe something that needs a visit from Aunt Matte Black?

      That car looks awsome. Are you running 275/50s in the rear? They look nice and fat.

      As promised ...and when your drag radials leave marks like this ....It will hook! The 4th from the top , the stripes are a bit over 200" and the tires are nice and sticky.
      This poor piece of asphalt takes a beating .
