We race a Corvette in SCCA Solo2 and drag events, and I use to race motorcycles, desert and drag.
I drag raced a 87 Buick GN. I sold it because the emissions laws pretty much made it a track and trailer queen. I loved street driving it. I actually bought my truck to tow it. But know that is getting out of hand.
I am working resto modding a real Chevy 66 Nova SS, Martz front clip, LS1 EFI tuned of course, and who knows what else.

Been drag racing for about 15 years...Wrecked the old '51 Henry J in Bakersfield in 10-02, went through the lights at 8.87, 135 on the driver's side of the car...Here's the new one, almost completed...Blown SBC on Methanol, hoping to run between 7.20-7.50 @ 185...Twin-turbo 540 BBC will go in my '55 one of these days to drive on the street, all steel 3500 lbs...Also have a '73 Chevy Stepside factory 454 truck, now has a 10:1 488 c.i. single carb w/ nitrous...Kinda hard keeping that one pointed straight...

I guess you could have stored it at my place!
The EPA hasn't had any luck finding us here We're so far back in the sticks, it takes til noon for the sun to come up.
I've had A Coast Guard Captains license since 1980 and ran a offshore Charter fishing business for a few years. I still love to go Fishing when time allows. Theres something about getting about 60 miles offshore where the phone doesn't ring and theres no stop signs or speed limits.
i really dont have any other than my trucks. im hoping my liquor business puts me in a position where farming is a hobby asap though. its fun just no money in it. i help my dad from time to time work on his cars, he has a 69 z28, 69 hemi superbee, and a 66 hemi charger. all are original just need some cleaning and polishing here and there. hope to maybe work on them some this winter. i also have an artic cat prowler that i ride when and if i ever have time---------hmmmmm i guess i have more hobbies than i thought
It's more of a job, then a hobby. But I love to chase women! Don't know what I'll do if I ever catch one tho.:angel: When they see me, it's like added spring in their step!
