No real big changes in the car this winter, except for a new lexan windshield to replace the old scratched 15 year old one and freshened the E85 carb and installed the super victor intake back on,,,I did purchase a new LM-2 a/f meter and will attempt to get this system dialed in the right way instead of the hit or miss system that I have used for years with limited success.
NOW yer talkin................If you have any hair now get used to a few patches missing when you start tuning cos it never ends.
hair is mostly gone from life's little trials and tribulations so the only thing I have to be careful about is the bruises from banging my head against the wall, as for the lm2, i freaked out when I got on the web site to download the instruction manual and realizes that I needed to go to Staples and buy a ream of paper and some spare ink cartridges,, 53 pages I think.
Charley,,I got the car pretty well where I want it, so the only thing's I need to do is go back and fix a few things here and there, the old girl is getting a little rough around the edges and I cannot afford to build a new one
Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

run some Q16 races and some Midwest top sportsman races. we haven't had the car out in two years so I'm looking forward to getting it out. I still need to put the motor and trans back in the car and send the wheels out to have the bead locks installed.

Carbon frontend, carbon doors, fiberglass dash, engine going to Bennett for a freshening and dyno time! Tranny is getting a full refresh and possibly a new low gear set. And finally we will dyno it with different turbos to see which one makes the most power on the P5! Also may put on a set of 17" front wheels.

Well...got laid off in Oct after 28 years with the company (over 55, white, with no engineering degree, what...me bitter? ), so I need to find a job. Bought a bunch of stuff so now I need to sell a bunch of stuff lol. GTX is running and driving with no body panels installed so I need to get those finished and installed, would like to make some shows with it in 2015. Also, if time and money allow, I have a Duster stored in the back of the shop that I would really like to build into a Super Street/bracket car just to scratch the old racing itch.
