Thanks Al, I think I split my spleen!!

Very well put Al. But I got a question. Because Dad was a Hot Rodder, did I become one by birth and therefore just waste the last 30 whatever years trying to learn the craft??? Geez, sometimes I get so confused !!!!!!!!!

Racedeck,
Congratulations on the mag. pic. I'm sure it feels great to see your hard work appreciated in a place where there are many of us who love the hobby.
Tell us how it feels to be going 200+ on the salt. I seriously would love to hear about it.

MikeC:
It definetly gets your blood pumping. The car is pretty steady until you start getting over 175mph..then it starts to drift quite a bit as you struggle to get a balance of traction, horsepower and cutting through the wind straight...At 200 you are passing each mile marker at a rate of 8 seconds each...
The whole experience with all the people who are out there makes it a "must do" atleast once in your life...but once you do go, you will be hooked....I am going to have my kid (turns 16 in August) get in the drivers seat...he as earned it as "pit boy'...It will be great to see him take his first run, on what I am sure will be a life long passion...

Racedeck: it's nice to see that you were able to build a buisness around your passion, all of us would be so lucky. Sucks to be you eh!. Keep Roddin!!!

I saw an add for race deck on Speed Vision and decided to check out your web page. That was about a week ago and I was particularily impressed by the viper logo in the deck this is a real nice touch. When i build my Garage i will probably get into contact with you for that feature all though i will be looking for GM logo's myself. Keep up the awsome work it was nice to be able to check out your ride as well. Is the car street legal or is it race only?

Congrats RaceDeck!! Nice to be recognized for all your(and whole crew) hard work and dedication to the sport. Good luck to your son too, I'm sure he'll make ya proud, heck, he has a good teacher for sure!
