I'm sure we've run this thread farther than it needed to go. Long story,short, NO ONE knows Kelsey's needs or aspirations better than Kelsey, and her parents. Thanks to all for responding. Brian, we agree, we're not freinds. I've always respected your tech advice, and thought you were an OK guy. You just don't know when to shut up. Youth and inexperience, I guess.
I'll do what's worked best in thirty years of raising kids. Thanks again, topic closed.

OK, Oldinjun...I'll give you that much. Can't disagree with anything in your last post. Perhaps if you hadn't have gotten your a$$ so far up on your back after my innocuous first post, it wouldn't have went this far, but hey, I've been guilty of the same.

Thanks Brian, truce? I apologize for being overly defensive in regards to my daughter. Does that make me a bad guy?
Excuse me, I have other battles to fight.
AHEM. BNP, was I talking to you? Skin is great, thanks for asking.

i beg to differ, it is what u THOUGHT u heard in ur OWN mind in the rocker deal, u relayed to blown nitro.

same deal here with oldinjun. ur smarta** mouth just don't know when to stop, when someone is offended by what u say...... u probably don't even realize it, u have done it so long to other people..... and get it honest also...... so there is no need to waste anymore time on this....... </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

JCURADOPE.

How's that for condensing the english language? I bet BNP wouldn't have even thought of that one.

Dude...by primary source, I mean me. If I tell someone about something I said, it's not hearsay. It's only hearsay when I tell someone somethign that somebody else said.

What I "thought" I heard in my mind when writing that rocker ad isn't as off as what you "thought" you heard in your mind when reading the ad. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

what i expected, from one so articulate . Brian "Energizer" Baker. Knows every word in the english language but his middle name.......

Disagree Our father/14yr old son's 1st car build is a 79TA w/RAIII/TH350/3.73(My daughter passed on it for a 95GP) No, i wont just turn him loose on the street. My older siblings learned how to drive in our 57 Super Chief 347/A.T./4.10gr. I learned in our 65 Bonny 389/A.T./3.23gr. My oldest brother's 1st car was a 71 BB Chevelle. My next oldest brother's 1st was a 67 427 Camaro. My sister's was a 70-71? 351 Mustang. My 1st car at 15 was a 68 400 FB. None of these cars were wrecked. And they were driven hard
I knew 3 people killed in HS. None were in Muscle cars.
OK, now down to business. I like the 068 cam/16 hds/3.55grs. I would use a 750 Q-jet for better milage and top end power. The TH350 will hold if in good shape. A cooler and shift kit will help it live longer. Do not use a high stall convertor without a cooler.
BTY; Good for you and your daughter. We need more girls in the sport, same with hunting and fishing

One Happy Kid...
His first real roadrace is this weekend, he is very well prepared. Kind sweet seeing my boy follow in his dad's hobbie of roadracing.

Actually, I know that too...it's Keith. My father named me after the actor (at least that's what he used to tell me).

Never said "energizer", that's true. The cheap asking price might have clued you in though, and if not, it's always best to ask rather than assume "gold".

Next?

The reason we gave that advice was because we know how WE were as teenagers. The issue has been resolved and Oldinjun and I have made a truce, so WTF don't you just drop it instead of coming back in here and stirring up more *****?

Brian,Im not looking to go on and on with this post,I have no problem with any one person-hell I dont know anyone except for their demeanor on this forum.I just got ticked off and wanted to make a point-he asked a tech question a a tech forum,he didnt ask for opinions on what his daughter could handle.He probaly wouldnt have recieved those responses if he hadnt metioned it was for his daughter-would have been all buisness.Sorry if it seemed pointed at one person,it wasnt,Im obviously not contributing anything to the initial post so I will shut up now.
