Hey Bob,
Right. Knew how to set them up to where nothing in their class could keep up.

There were quite a few that would come up for sale.The bugaboo with them is working on 'em.

Never found that to be so. They were pretty basic.

You have to do things different. Roll on the throttle not just tromp on it.

Actually, they were a sports racing car, not a dragster. But the one I had dominated its class at the Strip.

About your starter being slow.Make sure and check battery and connections.

That is on the agenda.
Have been keeping pretty busy as long as it wasn't too hot to be out. Can work between about 6:30 a.m. and Noon. Will be out this morning doing a bunch of fitting details, and then it will be time to start actually making the fitting permanent. Everything is easy, it's just figuring out what needs to be done next. The order in which to do stuff makes the flow of the work go much easier. Don't have to back-track to do something that should have been done earlier.
Hope YOU are well.
JC
