Yeah, I agree Marty, that is a really good looking car.
I was talking to Morgan at the Summer Nats in Worcester last year. I love the color green he went with and the red line tires set it off. It was one of my favorites there.

383 stroker with 500 horses.
NICE CAR!!

This is the new background on my computer. Is it just me or does it scream "this is pro-touring". It's just cool!

We made it home yesterday afternoon. Kevin and I left Detroit metro at 6am local time, drove through all the construction and toll booths in Chicago, bumped into Tim from Paradise Road Rod & Customs and talked for a bit, stopped for gas 3 times, had lunch, and got home at 3pm local time. With the time change, it was a 10 hour trip. 660 miles in just under 10 hours averaging 66 mph. We were making good time. lol The car was averaging right around 21mpg on the way home, too.

Aside from that bolt backing out, the car ran great.

Glad to hear the rest of the trip went well.

Looking forward to seeing more pics and reading more of your and Little Big Red's adventures.

I have a bunch more pics to get off the camera and organize. That will be this evenings project.

No problem, we are a patient fringe element.

Here are some random shots for now...

Jackass had it's ass branded:

Kind of a cool shot of the wheel/rotor/caliper:

Ken in his survivor Nova leading us into downtown Chicago:

Rolling into Detroit. That's one big tire.

21 MPG

. I really really want to stay BBC but that MPG is soooo tempting. I think I'd be dreaming if I thought I could get 15MPG out of a <500ci BBC even with EFI.

We ran the One Lap Camaro in the Nevada Open Road deal.. running 100 miles, 90 of them at tripple digit speeds, we nailed down 20 mpg.. lol

Gotta love the LS engines.

Maybe next year I can hit Power Tour.. it's on my list, just wish it was a bit closer.
