he has me by a bunch on torque.....I'm about 40-50 short of him on hp..

of course with the truck torque speaks volumes to me, with the vette its just wheelspin so I'm not really complaining...I'll take a vette with a higher hp number than torque any day of the week...

chris said 3rd isn't much trouble and 2nd is iffy, 1st, well just don't floor it in first...

Sal took very nice care of this car and it really shows in the finish!!


BTW: I finally got it registered. Seems the NJ Governor was holding things up a bit. I've been driving it for a week with no plates!
Joe, you are the only one that can get away driving without a plate, at least in NJ. Take care of the car and good luck with it.
