I should start a thread on moparts, but I'm kind of a stranger here. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/almost-funny-awb-barracuda-funny-car-build.1087510/ we're almost to Atlanta, tomorrow will unload the car and see if we can drive it around. After changing the rear springs, and some other stuff. Sounds like a good time to stop being a stranger.

They had a malfunction of the timing system today while I was 2nd inline for the burnout box and wearing my fire suit and helmet. Took an hour or two to get it fixed and I sat in the car too long before I got out. I was way overheated and now I'm exhausted. Hopefully I'll be good tomorrow
