I need to buy new boot laces, my current ones snapped a couple weeks ago when I laced them up, tied it back together and now its still holding. Every time I lace them though I keep thinking its going to snap.

Since you need to do homework and I need to sleep I do believe I will bow out of the 'hop and take my leave for the evening.

G'Night Matt

Looks like the hop has died back down in here...

Sorry Tom, I don't play the lottery

lend me 13 grand? Right after I win the powerball jackpot...

sounds like it needs a small block I'm pretty sure a smallbock in it, if it would fit, would twist the car in half But damn would it fly. *in a straight line only*

LS-7 Crate motor Tom.....

G'night Sean, 5:30 is gonna come damn quick

Speaking of light weight small cars. This summer I'm going to get some quality time with a ~'67 Fiat convertible, its my grandparents and they really don't want it. They have already told me when I have a garage of my own I can have it, and Dad has said if it stays at the ranch he is selling it, but I'm going to try to get that running this summer and have some fun in it. Little 4cyl, 2seater, red drop-top car.

Traction, whats that??? But, but, but dosen't it mean the cars REALLLLLY fast if you can spin the tires shifting into 3rd or 4th gear??? lol There were some guys in highschool who had a stock 70's TA that thought it was super fast cause it would spin the tires alot shifting, nope, it just had Really chitty tires on it.

Thats got a big engine though, when your running the 6cyl....

A stripper 67 Maro I'll bet its pretty close to that 2700 mark.

the Camaro is 2600 lbs What Camaro is only 2600lbs?? Teh Yeti has a 67 Camaro on the way to him...

it'd probably run mid to high 14s, i'd estimate Thats about my guess as well, maybe low 15's depending on the tires. It dosen't hook for chit, its got old tires on it.

The worst thing is the chevelle has a tiny ass fuel tank too. Whoever put that small of a tank (its like 15 gallons) in a big block car needed smacked.

Its one of the reasons that I won't race anyone in it. I'll burn the tires off but I won't race. I'd get my ass handed to me, most people don't realize that stock muslce cars aren't really all that fast in this day and age.

Add on a big block, power disc brakes, some tools, roadside stuff, people, etc, etc. And when you've got a car that dosen't have any plastic or fiberglass to speak of really in it....

When the 'hop is a 'hoppin, you'd better come a knocking

Top^

I knew the chevelle was heavy, didn't realize that it is ~4200-4400lbs cruising weight...

good things come to those who wait.

'Tis a happening place.

Better to ask forgivness than permission.

Driving really isn't a problem for me Sean, I enjoy it
