I don`t cry about anything too old for that and life`s too short so enjoy your bad ass car and I`ll keep playing w/my trash then maybe somehow we can make that race happen.

Next time ya see me stop by and bs Did you go out much this year? I really enjoy test & tune nights. You get to see different cars and have more time to bs but I only hit about 6 of them this year. That string of weather in the 90's on race day really did me in. Time to hit the gym and get some extra weight on this old body. 1970 Duster Edelbrock headed 408 5.984@112.52 422 Indy headed small block 5.982@112.56 mph 9.38@138.67 Livin and lovin life one day at a time

People build there cars how they like that is fine (not knocking it) but I just cant see building a street car that needs $10-$12 a gallon fuel to cruise around Why does that bother you so much? Personally, I wouldn't put the absolute worst fuel known to Mankind into my 7-10K+ motor... I just don't see the fascination with running junk fuel????.... Especially when the FACT is MOST people are LUCKY to put 2-3K miles/year on their cars.... I can fill my stock fuel tank up and drive at least 200 miles, and I honestly don't drive that much in one day.... Plus, I've been out driving around and got low on fuel so I just added 5 gallons of crap gas and limped the car home... If you want to spend what it costs to build an all new 700hp 572 to run on junk fuel, that's your business....but I don see why it bothers you so much when someone builds a much cheaper motor and wants to run good fuel???? all I can say is that you need grow up and stop worrying about what other people are doing... If you can't handle the truth, you're living a lie.......
