Pete:

No problem with posting the info! Drive was no big deal...only 790 miles from MMM to the house! Pulled in the drive way about 3am (I think?!) this morning...only took about 13 hours coming home (I must have hit all of the lights just right ).

Like Pete said, it took 3 tries, but I FINALLY got the best of the Stude. I had him on the first run, but was in a coma on the line, and gave up .3+ off of the line. But, I sqeaked out the next 2, and the rest is history. Oddly enough, that is THE CAR that I was wanting to get paired up with! I knew we would be close, and I think Bob/Dan probably made it happen.

I had to settle for 13.0s@106, as I could never get the 108 back on the big end, but I noticed Gateway has a test-n-tune Wednesday night...may sneak up there and see what happens. BUT, I gotten swap in some new rocker studs before I do ANYTHING!

And for you guys that don't know, or haven't heard, Pete yanked his iron engine in favor of an aluminum peice! With just 2 weeks of time on the engine, Pete was in the 12.30s, and that thing has 11s (in PURE STOCK TRIM) written ALL OVER IT! Just a matter of time!

Thanks again, Pete, to you guys (JJ, Tim, Gary(?)) for letting this musclecar crazed redneck hang out with you well mannered Canadian Gents !
