    and put a big pick-up body on it that would be sweet

    My son has an RX-7 which he put a racing engine in. He has had some trouble with it but should be getting it back soon from the mechanic. I'll have to post a pick.

    Dark said you were a speed nut and used to race. What's the fastest car you ever raced? And, trying to be respectful here because I wouldnt want to see anyone injured, but what was one of your closest calls with death while racing?

    That much power for such a lite car would be like a ride in a rocket ship!

    the fastest truck i had was a s10 pickup with 406 cubic inch smallblock pushing 643 hp with nos. my first run and last was 9.9 sec in 1/4 mi. nhra said i can not run the truck with out a nhra lic.
    i needed that lic. because any thing under 10.0 sec you had to have that lic and a full roll cage. i had a 3/4 cage not good enough had to be full cage under 10.0 sec that was that too much money and time.

    the closest call was go down on a pro gas bike at a 190 mph at 3/4 track the motor let go i had to let the bike go meaning the bike hitting the wall or me thank god i let go
    thank god for the safety suit the track is like a grinder

    643hp thats some real horses.
    And the bike at 190mph, bet that was a high in itself. I might have an accident in my pants at that speed, though.
    Nice pics, dark, keep em coming.
