well dont come by too soon (but feel free to come by or meet me up to give me le money please!)

UPDATE:

I drove the monster a little bit yesterday.. O.O holy fawk. im speechless. I didnt get on her, but just the feel and the torque. and the clutch and shifter. wow going to take some getting used to. haha

My buddy came over so I could trailer her to Texas ChassisWorks http://www.texaschassisworks.com/ (The owner Ken is on the speed channel on pinks and this bro builds 4000 HP drag cars from the ground up O.O) to get my header back exhaust created. I provided the flanges and gasket and muffler, he is doing the tig welding and stainless steel piping. I couldn't justify aluminum, sorry guys. sh!t is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

He has to order the bends so she wont be ready until the end of next week. I can wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MERRRRRRRRRY XMAS JCrim! :v tec::vte c:

The guy was pretty clean cut in appearance and had a business that was related to drag racing located in Tyler.. I'm almost sure it was a chassis building shop... The van looked pretty much like a normal passenger van except for the slicks and wheels and was small block Chevy powered... I am pretty sure he won but it was some year back that I saw it..

I think he had light brown or blonde hair and wore glasses. To tell you truth man, the guy looked more like a Methodist youth minister than a guy that would drag race and his van looked like something a guy that looked like him would drive to church.
