I Won Today
There was a local car club here who has a fun and run every year. I entered in the drag racing and in the show class modified 68-82. I won the show part but I think I broke an engine mount in the racing. I did not get to do the eliminations due to this problem. To be fair there were not a whole lot of 68-82 modifieds but I still got the big trophy. My son was thrilled to see me come home with the big trophy. Made my day. Now to fix the other problem.

Way :cool: Gordon!! Wish I could have made it. Have my car all apart right now as well.
Where did the mount break?? not off the frame?? Or was it just the mount? If so, it outta be easy to replace.
Congrats on the trophy!! :smash:

Re: I Won Today (Red73)
Gordon, Modified Class ??? :lol: I think your car would do well in the NCRS class!! Aside from the headers, it looks pretty stock to me! And the exterior looks 100% stock. I think you gave the "unmodified" class a huge break! I love a car that looks great and runs fast too. MJ
