I don't think I can do Friday. I can certainly run you with the 2002, it's got 1500mi on it now, but after it appeared
EZRIDN wasn't coming up with anything I tore the 87 apart.
Interior wise so I could get the 1/4 windows out. It's time for rust removal so I can get it prepped for paint. There's an easy several hours of work in putting it back together. I may be able to have it back together for a run this weekend. I'd have to bolt the 1/4 windows back in which is no big deal, but I'm not about to reassemble the rear just to take it back apart again. The 87's time in the driveway is limited before it gets sold.
I wish the body shop that painted the car before I got it wasn't so damn incompetent.
The car is really clean with no rust over about 80%, and underneath too, but crappy body work will be having my cutting out metal from one of the quarters and putting new stuff in. I took some pics of how she looks tonight.
I'm not running an unknown car that's supposed to beat me for money.
I can probably have the 1/4 windows back in, and a tune up done on the thing Saturday. I work all this week so there isn't any way I can set it up before then. There is no way I'm running for money with my 2002. As far as I'm concerned the 87 proved it was a lot faster than the new GT's when I ran it versus my 01 the week before I got the 02. I need to do a rematch between the 02 and 87 to see what the deal is. Maybe I'll do that on Sat too. I don't know of any good places to run in Champlin. I certainly don't think I'm putting on any lengths at 100+. My 87 doesn't trap as high as any properly driven LS1, so that would be a stupid comment. My two advantages are holeshot (if the other driver isn't as good), and driving capability. The car doesn't have any advantage on the LS1. Car vs car the outcome isn't in question. I believe I said I outran two of them to about 110mph. I was still ahead at that point. I can't really pull much of anything on even the LT1 past 90, and the LS1 should be beginning on reeling me back in at that point.
Drop me a line (763) 443-6321. We'll see what's shakin. Lata,
