The last picture is by far better than the others above it. ( what happened to the hood on the Del Sol?)
The only thing I would change in this pic is make the car bigger ( move it a little closer to the cam) while keeping the same background.

* KnacK really likes the white car with black accents.

The wheels look great on it.

when we were putting the motor back in it, the hood slammed down a few times. it hit the corners of the motor. it sucks. but it should be replaced soon.

Back when I was drag racing, we had an intercooler hose blow. The clamp holding the boot hit the hood hard enough to dent it bad.

Just keep in mind our intercooler tubes were 4" diameter and we were pushing 80+ psi of boost on the gas.

Sounded like a shotgun went off.

with 80+psi of boost i hope you were doing sub 7 second runs. i'm guessing it was some stroked v8 in a nova or the like?

well i decided to go turbo again with this one. looking for 400+hp on pump gas. should be good for some consistent 11sec slips.

The "ME CENTER" sounds like a great place to be.

Here's a shot.

I believe that was at World Ford Challenge 8 in St. Louis.
I'm standing at the tree waiting for David to do his burnout.

we got hit with a Cat 2 Hurricane on Wednesday. it was pretty crazy since we haven't actually been hit by one since the early 80's. i got a few pics during the storm, and a couple of some of the damage that was caused by it. as soon as i get power back at my house, i'll post them up. i planned to go out shooting more, but gas was a concern. as soon as i can power up my desktop i'll get them posted.

If it wasnt for that ridge of high pressure over east texas, dolly would have come straight up galveston. But now, that may have been my only chance for rain.

Oh, you didn't leave your camera out in the elements did ya?
