Nice Wheel stand! I figure I could maybe do that once the retire from racing to just watching. Lot of work for about 9 seconds of fun. I still take my old Power Wagon for those hours of fun driving it. My racing days are over when I got rid of my 11 sec Streetable 1967 Shelby GT 500 with Dual Quads under the hood. Raced it for about a year sold it to a 18 year old kid and he blew it up on a Freeway on ramp in less than 24 hours. He blew the engine and trans all at the same time missing a gear then dumping it into gear at around 6,000 rpms! You should have seen the mess on the road lots of parts came out from under the hood & car! It was a nice car till the kid got ahold of it and wanted to show his buddys what it could do? He should have learned how to drive it first!! Mark H.
