*THREE RULES*
NO import vs. domestic bickering.
NO Kerry's ride vs. Bush's ride.
NO import vs. domestic bickering.
I know what TA drives. Looks like a nice ride. What's everyone else running? Myself, I've got a non-restored 67 chevelle with a 327 that I'll be working on after my parents move. I've also got a civic that's itching for the turbo on my workbench. My daily driver is a crapped out s-10 blazer.
Anyone have timeslips/dyno sheets they'd like to brag about? timeslips prefered ;)
Dartful Dodger:
67 the last year cars were built without emission tests, gas efficiency, and aero dynamics. They were just built to look good and haul @ss.
67 Dodge Dart with a 225, 4 speed, manual steering, and disk brakes... restoring it to road race, but it's been parked for the last 2 years.
Daily driver 02 Chevy Cavalier.
DrewKaree:
Imports suck. Gimme a nice 'Mercan musclecar any day.
Bush's Shelby will whup Kerry's Renault any day of the week.
sac01:

Crazy Cooter:
Heheh, those oldies just don't cut through the wind well. It's kind of cool though how the front starts to lift at about 100 and you can actually move the steering wheel and still go straight. Just make sure the road is smooth where you try it. ;)
I like the pre 68 era too. My dad prefers 68+ (he has a 69 Chevelle). He says they had better traction (back when he used to race).
Drew drives a Renault?
Aren't those Tr-7's (and similar) trouble prone? That's all I've ever heard about them. And you could pull off some monster truck action if you had them together.
