I am, 68 barracuda fastback, 410ci. I just need to swap center sections from 4.10 to 3.73 the week before. Then just pack stuff to haul. Probably run the valves the week before. Fixed an annoying slow trans leak. Found a bad rear wheel bearing swapped that out. Not much really. Goal is to run quicker than 11.99 in the heat.

My Dad and I are not going this year, we decided it was too far away and while the tracks were awesome we didn't think that area and traffic would be a good time for a couple of Okies. I have been real lazy in getting my car going this year, but right on schedule with Drag Week I got it running, had a leak, then found a cracked converter snout. So it kind of feels like drag week prep lol. The difference this time is I put a empty trans case in it, dropped it off the jacks, threw the cover on and pushed it into the corner.
Really going to miss Billy's recap this year. His recap was awesome even if you were at the event!

I barely passed high school so dont expect a big right up from me. I did spend most of the day putting wipers back in my car. So that means it will not rain the whole time. Dont say that.. I was trunk monkey for my buddy in his 52 Ford PU truck.. he has the stock vacumn wipers on it with I think were the original blades.. and we pulled out of Milan Detroit headed to Pennsylvania we hit a bad rain storm(was a tornado about 10 miles ahead of use).. we finally made it but we played hell most of the say... the next year we had new wipers and blades
