Well Pat are you looking to just get rid of it or round up some cash.
I'd be willing to work out a trade. And build a pseudo Madarash-mobile. |

Oops, I wondered about that. I had a 50/50 chance of screwing it up! BTW, how is it as a street car? Did you ever dyno it?

QUOTE (rpoz-29 @ Oct 23 2005, 07:40) BTW, how is it as a street car? Did you ever dyno it? It's fine as a street car. The springs aren't much stiffer than stock (and I think a little softer in the rear). I was going to experiment with a little bit stiffer springs in front. It has the dual cats (which I replaced a couple years ago), AIR tubes, EGR, etc so it has all the emissions stuff intact. I didn't get around to dynoing it with the new long block. It did make 209 whp and 275 wtq with the 305. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Pat |

I cant buy the car since My wife will not allow me to have two cars to take up my time, but I was wondering about your front springs. I have the ground control set up with 750# front sprins (8") and I am having a bit of trouble with the car being too low for local driving. What length are your front springs? I need to have Sam get me some new ones for next season.

Even Boltman could go fast in it. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I tried, but the 3rd gens are a bit harder to drive than even the 4th gens... It drove really good, I just screwed up once or twice in the heavy braking zones on a couple of my runs. Not too hard to just jump into and drive though. Thanks for the ride.

Wait, so did Boltman not go fast in it? :leaving: Is Pat engaging in false advertising? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rant.gif) We need the story....how fast did Boltman go? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif)

I was close to Pat... about 2 tenths or so until his last run... then he put some time on me (7 tenths?)
But like I said, I screwed up in the heavy braking zones due to unfamiliarity with the car. Whoever buys the car should be able to get used to it with some seat time. I've just never driven a 3rd gen before and never had to worry about slowing down from speed without the aid of ABS. |

Damn, this better not still be around at the end of the summer otherwise I may end up with a one-way plane ticket and a 700 mile drive home. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif) (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/2thumbs.gif)

<---- If I didn't have this orange dust collector, I would have a white one instead.
At least mine has a solid roof (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |

Would it make a good daily driver?
Four days of daily driving my T/A, err fatboy climbing over the roll bar, has me thinking I need a fun daily. |

Would it make a good daily driver? Maybe not during the middle of summer in Texas (no AC). (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Pat |

You couldn't find an AC unit and install it? Seems like the boneyards are full of these. I have one or two units laying around here taken out of CMC 3rd gens.
