Hi all. Been reading the forum for a couple of years now and have not posted anything as yet but have gotten a wealth of information from you guys. I have a 02 Speedway White Coupe with a number of mods that I'll list at a later time as soon as I figure out how to do everything I want to post. Will get back to you later. Just wanted to say hi.

No that wasn't me in Waco. I do a lot of local shows although I have been to Kileen and Houston. The picture is of me at the Ft. Worth Rod & Custom where I got a 2nd. Place in my class.
