finally hit the track

it's been since last nov. that i ran the car. at the end of last season my th350 blew. so i bought a ATI P/G w/trans brake to replace it. also added lexan glass, installed a MSD7AL3, had the 6 pt. made into a 10 pt. the 1st pass i made it ran a new best time of 10.27 previous best was 10.34. next 2 passes the car went 10.34 both times. so overall with only 3 passes on the tranny i'm happy with the results. so for the next 2 months i plan on hitting the track at least once a week. 11 months was way too long. hope you all had a good season this year.

i have the rear lexan window sitting in my garage. i haven't installed it yet. the front is in but i got tired of working on the car and decided to run it like it is. in the next few weeks i'll put it in. theres about 40lbs diffference in the glass and lexan.
