Carmen and Paul,Thanks for the kind words,I drove through 7-1/2 hours of traffic on Friday with the hopes of running on Saturday,we got the trans back on Friday and then found out there was a problem with the converter,according to Rossler.I'll be making another long trip down for the 16th,hopefully all goes well this time.

The cage is on hold again,two months ago when I was supposed to drop it off,I got into my accident where I hit two trees,now this last time I was supposed to drop the car off on the 14th and the transmission in the car decided to start slipping and had to come out so I had to take care of that problem first,if I'm going to have to replace the trans after every ten nitrous runs the car isn't getting a full cage.

I hope your not throwing in the towel. You know the faster you go the more you spend and the longer it takes to get things ironed out.
If you want someone for the cage call Bob at NRC Motor sports 631-435-1895 He will be able to get it done for you the first time out. Believe me NHRA will put you through hell. He worked all the details out with them.
:cheers:
Now lets get racing. :boxing

I can second Bob's capabilities and relationship with the NHRA. He did a great job with my Roll Cage.

It wasn't a cheap exercise but you can't spend enough money on Safety.

TEK,

Sounds like your very ripe for getting the new Yank turbo 4000 A4 conversion tranny. That should be up for handling all the abuse you can throw at it. :smash:

Best of luck! :cheers:
