Troy, hate you have to sell it. But you have to think of yourself as far your health goes. But you still have the 60 to enjoy. Have fun with it.

Yep. Still got 60 as a street car. May have to drop back to some 13 second passes.
I can drive just can't wrench very much on them. Thanks for well wishes.

Hey Troy, ya bought, raced, and now selling a whole car since I bought your heads and I still haven't fired the motor, lol. I wish you weren't selling it because of health. Getting old sucks the big one. Good luck with the sale and enjoy the '60. You were meant to drive the '60 anyway. Sorry to hear you had to sell. Be good to yourself and have a great holiday.

I was afraid health was the driving factor behind the sale of your GP. Sorry to here this Troy. If you attend any events I do, I'll let you make passes in my car if you want to.

Bummer Troy... Your health comes 1st.
I know I'm looking at the possibility of not being able to race by time I get my stuff together. May be time to bring some new blood into Pontiac racing and partner with someone. |
