nothing beats a bad a** 4 speed machine. theres this little 30's ford truck that races out here, the cab was channeled on over the custom back halved and clipped frame by all means this is a backyard buld but done very safely disc brakes good welds grade 8 etc, anyways it weights 1850ish and has a t-10 4 speed guy uses a centerforce pressure plate with a stock disc, dumpt he clutch at 7200 pops 2-3 foot wheelies and runs 10.40 10.42 10.48 10.50 pretty consistent considering the air at the track changes very drastically. at 2500 feet it goes from 90 to 60 very fast! and it hops everytime he shifts ive considered getting decals for it naming it THE FROG!
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
