Alan,
Do you have a copyright on "Purple Cam Crew"?? I feel an inspiration for some T-shirts!!

Al,
I don't expect the National to fill up that quick, but it would be nice to know something from PSCA...BTW the new scoop looks like what I see when I look down at the urinal...a [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] hanging out of a zipper! just sayin...

Billy, you are a funny guy. But I think you may be looking through the wrong lens on your bifocals when you are standing at the urinal

I agree I can probably wait a few days but once it opens to one grade point I think it will fill in a few days. At least I hope it would. just wish I could get an answer either way. The silence is a strong answer I believe...

Wow! I guess I hit a nerve!
Didn't say you didn't know what you were doing.
Just wondered why you were changing everything?

Looks fine Al, It also looks like 572,s scoop that he had done. Yours maybe alittle smaller though, or the same. I havent seen 572,s scoop in awhile.

After getting some messages/texts/phone calls, I figured I should come back here, and see what is going on. I read the posts that were made, and although I am the original owner of the car, simply put, it isn't my car anymore, and Al can do whatever he wants with it. (Last time I checked, that was the way it is supposed to be) Although the car was far from perfect, and certainly not a show car, when I owned it, I always appreciated the kind words that people made, when I had it at the track. Since I sold the car, some snide comments have been made about the car, and towards me, by a few people, and I decided to take the high road, and say nothing in a forum setting like this. Everyone has an agenda, but, I find it better to focus on my own.
Sorry to hijack, but, after all of the calls, etc., I figured I should post something, as I don't really come on this board anymore.

Take Care,
Chris

The options available for scoops are really limited.. six pack, pro-stock or cowl is pretty much all you'll find.. So I give credit to Al for trying to be clever and come up with something out of the norm..

Well WOW is all I can say..Let me just clear the air a little bit here. Let me preface it by saying it is probably going to be way long. But those who know me know I kinda of have the gift of gab

First off I took nothing anyone typed poorly in any way. Anyone that knows me can confirm that I could care less what people think of me or my cars, any of them. We do what we do becuase we love doing it. Not to impress others. If people like what we do fine, if they dont that's fine too. But believe me I do not do any of this to impress anyone else. Everyone is entitiled to an opinion and to express it. Maybe I could have typed my reponse a little better but I thought it was just a little board banter between posters. That is all....

As for some of the other posts about the car. First and foremost I purchased this car from a FRIEND not a stranger I did not know. When I did finally purchase the car from Chris we both knew the class was likely a goner for this season. I would have preferred to purchase it as a roller but Chris wanted to sell it complete which was obviously fine with me as it has been in my garage for a few months. So buying it without doing my research and having to totally change the car was the intent from the beginning. Not an oh S*%t what do I do know thing. I think Chris will tell you we never intended to run it there to begin with. But if the oppourtunity was there sure I would run it in Hot Street. I have it why not use it and likely will continue for now to find a place to race it. I bought the car because I KNEW it was a quality top notch piece that had no money spared in the build. make no mistake this is a great car, and Chris did an awesome job when putting it together, PERIOD. Anything we change on the car will be what we feel is an area to improve the car. As for the paint, hey it's what we do.

I am sorry if anyone got bent out of shape or took things the wrong way in this post. All I wanted to do was share what we had been doing. Hopefully when it is all done it will come out nice that is all I am concerned with. My son is doing 90% of the color change and modifications and he is making the calls on the stuff we are doing. Afterall I am old and out of touch with what cool so it his dealio

Well just got some late breaking news. I just received a text that said Hot Street WILL be returing to the PSCA for 2012. So looks like we will put the Hemi back in and go play some more. Unless someone buys it before the race in March...

Then again we have not heard the Judges final decision on Fontana's fate yet either so who knows...
