Hey Project89, I wish I could! But, Take as many pictures as possible & video for us to drool over!
Hoping that I'll have my 85 TA together for next year ( & crossing my fingers that my work picks up so I don't have to sell my a** .... to finance it & the trip ).

Ahhh man.... that's cool. Was really looking forward to see how you did ( that is one of my bigger goals for my ride'), & get feedback as what to expect, (fees ,fuel & tire cost, how much to live on their economy, as well as road/track condition , cornering complications , etc. ..).
I have a long way to go, so hopefully I can get with someone (that does/has competed in the Silver State, with a thirdgen ).
Thanks & still looking forward to hearing about your progress with the head's, etc.. on the other topic.

next year ill go , i just didnt have the budget for it this year , the more i thought about it the more i needed to do the car i.e different wheels and tires + brakes and some other things , coupled with the fuel bill and all that it was just to much in such a short period of time

I heard that! I'm hoping to get my car in the chassis shop before Xmas. .. that way I can get it back & hopefully together ( with time to sort out the rest, i.e. setup suspension, wiring, rims & tires, etc...). And, if I don't make it next year. ... I'll shoot for the following

It's a bucket list item for me, building a Super Duty motor for my 73 Trans Am right now.
