I trusted I'd get that;
I was more concerned for you;
you paid for something - and I figured you'ld want to see the fruits of that expense...

I just had an idea.

Since I'm gonna be dynoing my car before and after my header install I was thinking of having people pitch in $5 for a guess. Closest to the number +/- 2 wins the pot.

Sound like a bad idea for a little guessing game?

i'd be in...

but does the guess have to be within two to win? ~ otherwise you get the pot??

or is this purely a closest guess wins...

Well I think that +/- 5 is a little too big. We can go pick a number and the closest person wins the pot or just for fun doesn't hurt as well

Do it like the price is right. Closest without going over wins.

i think anything under 14 you need a helmet, and under 10 you need a racing harness, and under 8 a full roll cage

no the reason race city doesn't allow people running that fast for the full quarter is because the slow down isn't long enough. the top fuelers if you watch them when they run at race city only run 1/8th mile

Checked out the rules and regulations, http://www.racecity.com/index.php?op...d=27&Itemid=84 and couldn't find anything really specific about times and specific rules... although that does sound like common sense

my schools is rather old and doesnt work well, also the teacher would only allow it if i let one of the students do it. and were getting a new teacher, so i dont know what his rules are about me doing it after school.

i just want to finish it real soon, but it still corroded in places, thats why i need it sand blasted. i want it to look nearly perfect when im done. if after sandblasting it still has the black spots all over, ill just paint it

those black spots are pitting and should come out with sand blasting. and they should let you do it on your lunch or after school.

take it to another high school then lol, labour is free at schools and for sandblasting there shouldn't be any parts, so you might end up with like a $20 shop supplies bill
