Dave,

Nice stuff there!

I was wonderin' too if that black '82 with Jersey tags and the side pipes took a run. Big%20smile

Great pix, Dave, but come on now, you mean you didn't try it at least once just to see what it would do??? That ZZ4 should run like a scalded cat.

I thought about running but the timing is off and the carb needs a good set up. I have a slight ping and did not want to take a chance with it. It was tempting though. Unhappy

I do want to run it, but I think it will have to wait till next year. When I do you guys will know about it! Big%20smile

That Benz ran once and then was gone, don't know anything about him, except he ran a 14 flat.

The black & green Vettes were running each other all day, they were always within .4o sections of each other, great heads up racing. They ran low 11's.

Glad you enjoyed the pics, hopfully next time that black '82 will be at the starting line.
