I'll git er done. I'm going to devote most of Sunday and Monday to it, then it goes to the chassis guy on Tuesday, gets certed Tuesday evening, and goes in for the gears on Wednesday morning.

I have C clip eliminators. Moser 31 spline axles and a Detroit Locker.

Yep. We're going Junior racin' tomorrow, then I get to concentrate on the car for a couple of days.

Well, the cage is redone and the car now has a shiny new NHRA 8.50 cert sticker :bounce:

The path is now clear for my licensing passes on Friday. The 4.30s go in tomorrow. :icon_cool:

Now . . . a brief moment of silence for the 10s . . . . :Bucktooth:

I can still go fast in the heat. I don't like sweating my butt off in the staging lane.

Never thought of that. LOL

That's my (valid) excuse for racing a vert.

Am I glad I did it when everyone else is sweating their butts off? You bet.
