Nice run Dan!!! The E.T. isn't real surprising but the MPH seems to indicate some BIG HP!!

I picked up the second batch of parts Saturday so it's time to start installing. Hopefully I'll be able to join Dan in the 12's.

Good morning all and have a great day, eh

G'morning!

Back to winter today. We've had all 4 seasons in the last 4 weeks.
If the trend continues, we should be back to Spring in a couple of days.

Good morning! I drained all of the gas from the snow blower on Saturday and it was snowing yesterday morning. I guess the SS will go back into hibernation for a few more days again. 1-3 " of snow forcasted for some who live north of me today!

I wish it was the SS then I would be happy! Oh what the heck I am happy anyway. Not with my Zed oh 06 time in the quarter but as usual it just makes me so happy to see all my friends again. We have the best group of people that we could ask for with these cars. I met a bunch of new people and saw all my old friends again. A good time indeed.

Here is my best timeslip. Traction was awful!! There were a lot of nice SS's running in the 14's. By the way, the Zed OH 6 dyno'd at 352 RWHP last summer.

RT - 648
60 - 2.244
330 - 5.701
1/8 - 8.487
mph - 89.58
1000 - 10.837
1/4 - 12.826
mph - 112.95

My other runs had 60 ft of 2.280 and 2.361. Ughhh, they were low 13's runs.

All in all it was a great day and a real tease for Bowling Green when I get to see everyone!!!! I can't wait.

By the way, we had the banner up.

Here is a picture (sorry I only have webshots right now so you have to go to the link) of the banner. It's packed up and we are ready to ship it to Hawkeye.

If you look closely, you will see my SSOA flag on my antenna in this picture.

Howdy, all! Glad I was able to make part of SLP Day, even though the fates conspired against me. Great seeing a whole bunch of people - we gotta do this more often.

SLP Day sounds like a blast...guess I'll just have to settle for Bowling Green though. The trip to Redding with Steve & Teri was a lot of fun...my ears should stop ringing in the next day or two . It's amazing to see how many people gawk at the "502" emblem when they're beside the car. I can't wait 'till the day when I have a car like that.
