Ed, you should be proud that you made the whole trip and ran as good as 8's with a street car. Awesome!! Tell us some of the unique experiences you encountered on your trip. What did you learn for next time? Seems like there is a great story here. John

Well the toll that dragweek puts you thru has gone, I almost feel human again .
My co-pilot did a great job of fliming and taking pictures, found this one on youtube.
Kind of boring but fun for the driver, and yes the new coverter is way to loose.
Low 9 at about 150 mph.
