Default Drag week 2015

Just in case some of you are into some racing. Hot Rod's drag week has started and you can follow it on You Tube. Neat racing where they drive from track to track and see who can set the lowest ET. I think Jeff Lutz has it right now with a 6.05 in the quarter.

My buddy Frank built the light green/blue '67 Nova Wagon with a twin turbo 540, BY HIMSELF IN HIS GARAGE. The only thing done outside of his garage was paint. He also has twin turbo LSX '67 Nova Coupe with that he also built himself. I've been following the results on FB. I hope to attend a couple events one year. That Illinois/Indiana area is where I grew up.
