The thieves were probably one of those dam SO CA street racers
We use to catch them and take them out to the low desert and tie them up to Joshua Trees and use them for Coyote bait
Society should do that to all thief's and outlaws That will help make America a lot better

I haven’t talked to him. I know this because he posted something on his business Facebook page.

The white Chevy II I think you are speaking of is Lance Kniggie. He is from Casper. One of the couple of Street Outlaws No Prep want a be’s from Casper/Wyoming. He had a fire in the engine area. Messed up some stuff.

I remember the inaugural NHRA National event. We were helping the Hool brothers with their TAFC. We got called for first round. Kris(driver) changed clothes in the trailer. We left the trailer unlocked(bad idea) when we returned his wallet was missing from his pants. It had $300 in cash plus the normal things.

The theifs are still going strong 20 plus years later.

Girl friend and I had a blast. While we didn't make any money, I know we are not the first fools to contribute to the Las Vegas economy.
It was such an awesome experince on so many levels. My brother and family from San Diego attended and my girlfriend surprised me by flying my sister up from Panama.
The So Cal racers that we pitted with are old friends I made 50 years ago in the Canal Zone Panama. George asked me last November to come out and race his Roadrunner. GF and I decide "lets haul Thelma and Louise out and race are own cars"! cars ran good my GTX while .008 slower in Vegas ran over 1.5 MPH faster than its Florida best.
The old Mega Cab did its job along with the two car trailer. We loaded both cars in Vegas with no broken parts and or issues. The 5400 mile trip was a bit rough. Rain storms in Florida on the way out and snow and hail on the way back. The only major down side was the price of diesel fuel. Florida was the worse as we never found it under $5.00 a gallon. Out west we found several places under $4.50. We averaged right at 11 MPG.... yup! right at $2500 for fuel.
Met a bunch of really nice people including "J_Body"...Thanks for stopping by.
Special thanks to "Al Alguire" who recommendations for jetting changes were spot on .005 les jet was perfect. Both cars ran with in a tenth of what they run at sea level.
Yes, I will probably do it again, talking about taking two Challengers next time.

It was nice talking to you on Friday plus your friends from my old stomping grounds. Pretty awesome that you made the trek west.
