Fredericksburg Part 2.
all 3 of em.. haha...
I'll admit, I am a wuss when it come to pushing my shit to the edge, hell I still have another 50+ whp on the table I just don't use because I don't want to push the limits. I leave the limit pushing game to people like Brandon who aren't afraid to break shit, haha. Though Ironically, I tune the car with a giant safety margin but show the driveline no mercy. I had that quartermaster clutch in the car for like 1 year and it probably had like 300 launches on it, and I never once lifted to shift with that clutch. Shit me and Brandon did like probably 50 launches in one night on it when we were trying to figure out a way to make the tires hook.
And for Jason, biggest hypocrit ever. If there was a mileage record to prove it I'd bet I put over double the miles on my shit in the last year than he put on his.

Wow, only Dave can make up history as he goes along. Point in case, look at the shootout, only he can tell you exactly how the stripclub scenerio turned out. Brandon knows what I'm talkin about here. Shit Dave, I put more miles on my car on a sinlge Saturday night than you do all month. Case in point: I try to convince Dave to drive his car after the HTA86 swap. His claim, "Its too cold to drive the car, I don't want to get stranded in such cold weather".

Rumors I will go ahead and extinguish now:
the car is NOT a stripped race car - it has full interior, power everything, and a full stereo
It has never had a motor failure of any shape or form
A motor has only ever been pulled from the car ONCE - to swap out the original, for the new one
Only two motors have ever been in it - the stock, 90k mile longblock, was in it till 1.5 years ago
The old motor is still making plenty of power in another local car - no it's not in another red car (nor are any old turbos of mine)
The stock motor was replaced with a simple $2000 piston/rod upgraded basic forged rebuild; stock head was retained, cams and valve springs aside
It has had only 3 transmissions ever in it, original, rebuilt OEM, and another rebuilt OEM; NONE have ever had major failure
It has never seen nitrous during a pull or pass
The turbo on it is small by most people's standards - much much smaller than a 67 even

I don't give two shits how often you drive your car, I just like to give you a hard time about it. That's the reason we call it the driveway Queen, because its hilarious. And when I'm accused of being hypocritical by you I laugh, because its not based on any evidence. 47mi on my car? I put that much on it just driving INTO town. Not to mention during the Spring I drive my car almost DAILY, depending on the weather of course. During the summer I'll only drive it about twice a week. The fact you're trying to bust my balls when you're utterly clueless is hilarity at its finest though.
