I decided to take the car to the drag strip last Friday lol. First time that I’d been in a while. I believe there is room for much improvement but I didn’t want to beat on it too hard lol. I was in the left lane.

I'm so sorry Steve! If I had known it was you I wouldn't have cut such a good light. ; )

Let me know next time you go. I was there with the Nova. I was surprized how busy it was.

Did you notice that monster Vette,the blue C2. That car won Drag Week a couple of years ago.

See you soon.

The Chevelle bug started young with me. I bought this ‘70 SS 396 when I was 15 and slowly built it through high school. I was 17 here lol.

I’ve managed to put 2571 miles on the car so far this year. I’m amazed how nice it is to drive.
