Turn around and limp it back home, hop in another pickup and hit the road again.

I’ll be there, without the car. Aggravated as can be, been busting my butt past month trying to make this trip with my 65 race car, guess it just wasn’t meant to be this year.
That seems like a typical day.....what part is the bad luck!

GTO George,
So just how many door cars that weigh 300 to 400 pounds more than your car and have run 6 seconds (1/4 mile) are there? Billy / Tony have!

GTO George,
Congratulation on getting into the 7's. I don't think there is a better place to have done it.

Stan
