I think that high bid of $7,600 is going to go up just a bit before the end!

Hmmm.. 365 degrees .050 duration on the exhaust
Since when are there more than 360 degrees in one rotation?? and 360 degrees would mean that the exhaust valves are always open
Well, he must've messed up the description..

He hit something hard with the exhaust, look at one of those primaries, I'm willing to bet it's leaking htere and that dent (looks more like the grand canyon) sure doesn't help performance.

Does it say that the frame-rails are narrowed?


Mid-10's ain't nothing to sneeze at, but it looks like the Flintstone-mobile with those slicks hanging-out.....
