steve!! hows it going man? how is everything?
jeremy how's eveything? what kinda et's is the car running now?
hey dave!
a slight update: moved out of pa and back to long island. in the process of saving for a house :rolleyes; . business is doing great. still working the kinks out but i cant complain.(but will of course). kinda sad thats it with the life situation.
as far as the cars go.. my be loved gti is gone. after i did the coilovers i could see i'd be getting in to trouble fast with it. that and the front end needed a lot of money. more then i was willing to put in to it. i got a 2011 jeep liberty. yeah yeah go ahead laugh.. i know girls truck.. kinda a girls color too (blackberry.. blah) . they wouldnt budge on the black one but got a great deal on mine. i gotta say i LOVE my jeep! my buick now rests in a storage spot. i'm hoping by the spring she'll be painted. as she sits right now half the interior is out and i'm happy to report the floors are in great shape... on the passanger side didnt get to the drivers side just yet. i'm tossing the idea up about another project car.. i'm loving a 66 nova with a LSx.. but also might build a dragster.this week i love the dragster more then anything. but house comes first.
i've been spending a lot of time (when i got it) with my brother at the track with his GTI. car is really coming around and we finally got it down in the 10.80's with a lot more to go.
my boxer nikki is almost 5 and doing great. i mean.. she's weird.. very very weird but great.
thats about it guys. hows everyone else?

I'm doing ok - dealing with some personal issues right now. But hopefully they'll get worked out soon. PTSD f'ing sucks. My son is 7 months old and between him, 2 dogs, wife, and car - I'm pretty busy.
It has ran 11.30's @ 123 on the motor with 4.56 gears.
It's got 4.11's in it now and it's jetted for a 100 hit.
Having issues with the new clutch - so it's gotta come back out :013:
Hopefully I can make some shake downs at the end of the month.
-
nice man!! congrats on your son!
sorry to hear about the issues though.
i'm really up in the air about a LSx. i'd love to do one in a box nova.. but i'm loving a mini dragster right now. run supercomp for about 60k less then a new one.
