<span style="font-size: 20pt">Wow, and what a day [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] !!!! Being back in the 'Buckeye' state has its advantages. Doug Perry hosted his 4th annual drag racing day and picked a picture perfect day (72 deg, sunny, low humidity, lite winds & ZERO % chance of the wet stuff! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif[/img] ! On hand was Doug (RG 4spd COPO)! His friend and mech -Dave, Mike Angelo (l78, 4 spd Camaro) Grady Burch (over-the-top '67 "350" L-88 motivated Camaro, Rich RUTT, Woj & bro Steve ('69 300 Dx 502 ci motivated beast) and Joe Schoenthaler & Shawn Hoffman all the way down from Donahue. Thanks for the great opportunity Doug!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

<span style="font-size: 20pt">Woj's <span style="color: #006600"><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">GREEN</span></span></span> monster. Keep in mind, this puppy has <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">273</span></span> gears in it, backed by a Tremec 5 speed world-class. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img] I think this was Woj's inaugural visit to the drag races with his post car.</span>

<span style="font-size: 20pt"> [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img]. You guys have heard of broke-back-mountain, right? Well. This is a photo of two members of the broke-an-axle-at-Dragstrip commiserating. Within 10 minutes of each other, two mighty '69 solid lifter Camaros never left the line due to significant 3rd member issues!!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cry.gif[/img] Hey Grady! Where did Mikey get the sticky slicks? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] </span>

What a hoot!! Grady was knocking off 11.8s and Woj was flirting with low 13s with 273 gears!!!!</span> [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

<span style="font-size: 20pt">Another big thanks to Mikey. He took my original Deuce gas cap and turned it into a piece of jewelry!!!! I think I may have disappointed Mikey when I told him I was going to drill a hole thru the cap and put it on a chain around my neck!
