Chris, If you're talking about me, I'll be there. If you're talking about Remlinger I can't help you!o No:
He's talkin' about me! LOL! I think I'm ready!! I owe Chris a re-match from last year's abortive runs with Chris's ignition problems. I'll even square up against your '57, Frank! :bglasses: I owe Donny a re-match too, but he has been tearing his 327 apart a couple of times since I beat him a few years ago. He has upgraded his 327 quite a bit. All I have done is dust my car since then..................... ou:
upgraded ??? yeah, like wild mods like working wrist pins and pistons that actually move in the cylinders without sticking........ and that's a lie, Frank, you have also washed the anti freeze off the inside of the hood several times since 2005..........
I have just water in the 340 and (incorrect for a Mopar) screw clamps are securely in place on both heater hoses!! They weigh more than the OE Corbin clamps so I picked up some weight as well! Another advantage to the plastic fantastic Sting Ray!!:bglasses:
I don't get the goat back? You will have to deal with this guy OK, OK, you can drive the goat all you want till I bring the rental back :TU:
Jody don't threaten me, I have spare motors and a AMC seat I can install in the Goat at a moments notice and be driving that girlie. With the drag slicks on it already I may just have to do that. Anyone want to come over and see what a 7000 grand drop looks like in a '64 Goat with a four speed? Donny not only do you know where but you know how to get in. The lucky thing for me is all the bass boats that are around are someone else's. I may not miss them at all! Blogging for three sorry guys. Anyone bringing something seriously updated or new? Mark
uGGGGGGGGGGGGGh ...... ou: I've pretty much nailed my wheel hop problem in the Biscayne .... and NOW I'm having some miss issues over 4k. Probably my double-top-secret points distributor that I recently installed. If all else fails, I'll con one of customers into letting me bring his '70 Six Pak Challenger. That can't be all that bad ...........
well, you saw it at Martin. In fact I even ran you once in the test-n-tune on friday. But my 70.5 GT-37 will be there. First 70.5 GT-37 at the PSMCDR. WITH a correct hood no less. WAHOO!!!! Now I just need to con a friend to come over and help me install it. I painted it this past weekend. I'd like to check the fluid level in the M-21, but murphy's law might creep up. And I'm battling brakes on the W-31 currently. Honestly, I'll probably run out of time so I'll just have to pray (again) nothing breaks. My list of winter projects for the GT-37 is a long one though. new rear axle, brakes all around, perhaps synchros in the tranny, tach with a shift light, getting driver (and possibly passenger) front fender repaired (there's bondo in the passenger fender), correct shifter handle so I'm not steering the car with my face :grin:
Junior, You don't need no stinkin' tach. You have Hydraulic lifters--thats your rev limiter. Just go til she noses a little, then grab-a-gear!! Go through the JJ rowing course, wiggle the big toe on your right foot and grab it!!!! He might even have a set of cowboy boots for you to wear (I figured out why he wore those, no tread to grab on the clutch pedal). ou:
Mark, I can tell you what a 7 grand start will look like. It'll look like 7 quarts of 75 weight oil and gear teeth. Tried it once With my 65 Goat, walked home. Never did that again.ou:
Since you mentioned it, Pegleg, I'll line up at the tree with both of the Franks. One at a time of course. Bring it on. On a different note, I think there is going to be a new Torino there this year.
There's really no magic in the Frank/Chris nationals, I like the the Frank nats better. I thought we did this at Martin and you ate my lunch?
Frank , That does have a certain ~ring~ to it!! If it catches on, then we'll have to start issuing T-shirts like the Plain Brown Wrapper crew. Ahhhh.....I can see the shirts now............... I raced Frank Remlinger at the Frank Nats! I raced Frank Rice at the Frank Nats! I watched the Franks race at the Frank Nats! I wish my name was Frank so I can race in the Frank Nats! uzzled:
To the tune of "Streets of El Paso", with thanks to the Smothers Brothers for the original version......... "I see by your tee shirt, that you are a Frank......... "You see by my tee shirt, I am a Frank, too........... "We see by our tee shirts, that we are both Franks..... "If you get a tee shirt, you can be a Frank, too.......... :grin:
