no turbos...no blowers....just good old fashioned all motor thump squeezed out of 347 cubic inches shifting 5 times in 9 seconds...
the owner just needs to become motivated again...which has been hard here lately with building a house & having soo damn much fun in airplanes .....LOL

I don't want to put money into it Terry (especially money I don't have). Honestly, I have lost the will to even want to drive it. I want to see it out and about, being driven like it is supposed to, and I can't do that. It wouldn't take much to get it done, but then it would need constant maintenance, hauled to the track, etc. etc. etc. I don't want anything to do with it, plain and simple. :(

Not really trying to call anyone in paticular out. Just trying to stir the pot and make the board fun again. The way it used to be. I'm not the type of person to call someone out unless they start something with me, then it is on. I just like to have fun. It has been way to quiet! Agree?
About the "Other" 8 second cars coming out.... yeah why not post what u have then bring it out. I hate people that don't like to tell you what they have and want to play games.

i keep forgetting too that everyone can build similar cars for 10K...if i had a dollar everytime someone told me "yeah man...so & so is selling his 9 second car for ten"...or "yeah...i saw a sweet 9 second car just like yours on racing junk...they want 12 for it..." id be rich..

Hell i have made a number of passes fast enough to put me in the top half of the field but it always fun to kept them talking :lol: And then you have a few street racers who wait till the end to show there hand . And then a few still in the build mode. No one can desput your shit is fast . But if you want to call some body out they are prob racing up in middletown tonight .That is where they seprates the men from the boys but you better bring your gun they dont play fair up there :lol: and if you wait till someone says go you will lose they go on 1 up there :lol: I think buy the end of the year we will have 4 or 5 eight secound cars on the list . But seeing who can get down tristate on the shoot out will be fun . I rember last year nothing like seeing your shift light go on and off at 1000 foot .

It took me about 2 mins to find two other 93 cobras that are probably faster with just as nice of parts on it. I have watch you make comments like this a few times and if it was such a good deal it would be sold already. I suggest you finish it and see what it brings I'm willing to bet you dont get an offer over 25k for it. These cars just dont bring that kind of money

Yea both those cars look like SHIT next to Jonny's! I think you were a little harsh Kelly. Have you seen his car in person? It's drop dead sexy.:drool: Would I pay 45-50K for it, no but it's his and he knows what he has sunk in it. It's always cheaper to buy them done. Hell if I had a extra 50K laying around I would own a NMRA DR car that's for sale here in town that is proven winner. :D

You will not find to many cars out there as nice as johnys . His car is a very few bars away from a being 25.2 and is prob nicer then some of the cars running hot street . You could not build his car for what he is asking . You can buy a car thats faster for less but it will not be as nice or have the parts it has in it all brand new . I have seen and bought a lot of junk in my day and when you get a sso car for 25 grand its a fast piece of junk . To alot of people thats ok because its fast ( me included) but to the few that want it fast and look like a show car you can buy johnys car save some money and not go thew the headache of building it .

I've seen his car back in the day and it is very nice and I know he has alot of $$ in it. The car has the best of everything on it. I'm just saying these cars dont bring that kind of money. I guess its the comment of no one is smart enough to buy it for 45k turn key just hit me the wrong way. I would hope that if I had a car with as much money invested as he has it would bring 45k but I know it wouldnt. He is much better of to finish it and keep it for a while and take a hit on it later.

Who fucking cars, honestly? Cars are just cars and nothing more. The person willing to put the most time and money in a car is going to have the fastest/nicest car 9 times out of 10. I got into racing because it was fun. I knew I could never ever be the fastest guy out there, but I figured i'd go as fast as my budget would allow. I'm so tired of racing and stuff that I cant even stand to look at my car without it physically making me sick. I've had so many nights without sleep and so many headaches from this crap that it drove me away from it. I could careless about racing anymore. I've taken my car to a level I never thought of being able to reach and now, it dont mean shit to me. I've thought about selling it a million times but there's no way I could sell it after all the money and hours i've put into it. I'd rather crush it than sell it, which really dont sound like a bad idea. In the end, just be happy with what you have and enjoy it. Dont worry about trying to have the fastest or the nicest car out there cause in the end....what does it prove??

It took me about 2 mins to find two other 93 cobras that are probably faster with just as nice of parts on it. I have watch you make comments like this a few times and if it was such a good deal it would be sold already. I suggest you finish it and see what it brings I'm willing to bet you dont get an offer over 25k for it. These cars just dont bring that kind of money

I think there are alot lot of people around here who have been on the list for a long time and know that its a long year and alot of people wait till the last min to post up there times to put some drama to it . Hell i have made a number of passes fast enough to put me in the top half of the field but it always fun to kept them talking :lol: And then you have a few street racers who wait till the end to show there hand . And then a few still in the build mode. No one can desput your shit is fast . But if you want to call some body out they are prob racing up in middletown tonight .That is where they seprates the men from the boys but you better bring your gun they dont play fair up there :lol: and if you wait till someone says go you will lose they go on 1 up there :lol: I think buy the end of the year we will have 4 or 5 eight secound cars on the list . But seeing who can get down tristate on the shoot out will be fun . I rember last year nothing like seeing your shift light go on and off at 1000 foot .
Yeah, I raced up in Middletown back in the day. Vinny and I cruising up there, so I know how it works. It was a good time and all in fun. Those guys seemed like ASSHOLES on the board, but once you meet them in person, you realize they just want to have fun like everyone else, and that is what it is about. I was not lucky enough to be able to participate in the shootout last year. When is it going to happen this year?
As far as 4 or 5 eight second rides this year, I don't see it happening. Maybe two or three.
I think you need to post your time up now, of what u have run, and join the list!:bigthumb
What I do think is amazing, is the # of cars in the 9's this year. A lot of people have put a lot of time and effort in their cars and it shows. All the hard work is finally paying off for people.
What I don't like on this board is how some people are swinging off peoples nuts. If a car from their area puts up a nice run.... they post... if someone else does it, they just sit back and say nothing. I have respect for anyone that puts time and effort in there car. I don't care where you are from or who you know or don't know.
As far as you putting on the nitrous, It looks VERY nice. Now get that shit on the car and put up an 8 second pass!

now that i have power again...not to bring back up but wanted to mention...
i do say thanks to jason & tino for the nice comments about my car.
also... i will say.... "i could give 2 shits about my car myself"....its a freaking car!...about 4th on my hobby list....
it is what it is...& anyone out there can compare things all day long...i believe my rear end & tranny costs more than kelly's pinks car....does that make me cooler...no...does that mean my car is cooler...no...is my car a little more quality...maybe
...but don't go talking shit about something you don't know about. & saying i couldn't get over 25k for it shows how stupid you are... I've been offered 35k for my car twice "in pieces" by people who admit that they were lowballing & already have cars... that 25k comment sounds like beefcake telling me my f150 was worth 5-6k because if they came & saw him...they could buy a brand new one for 10k a few months ago when i got 11k for it by the first person who called 2 days after listing it on craigs list
im not a big fan of cars that post up awesome numbers a handful of times...& have the classic 2 page list of parts it needs to be somewhat bullit proof & run the same impresive run the next 30 weekends in a row... a car "in general" "and no thats not talking about anyones car in particular on here" that is running on thing ice a pass away from losing a bottom end again is meaningless to me...
i had no intentions of belittling anyone by saying "no one is smart enough to buy etc..."..you left out one thing i did say...anyone "with the extra cash"....which rules out 99%
btw kelly....i haven't cared for you simply because of the way you handled all the pinks parts donations...including the shit i gave you...not because shit you talk about my car...what you believe is tasteful & carries value simply is not what we agree on..

Its not about luck...just need to open up your options nationwide if you ever decided you wanted to let go...there are more smart people than you think that know whats up & appreciate what you have...may be 1 in 500 but they're out there...just because no one local steps up means nothing..
i could write a small book on cars & bikes i've sold to people out of town in the past 14 years...
2 classic examples....
a 93 cobra i had since highschool...43k orig miles...everyone local...friends of friends etc swore the car was only worth 10K....because it wasn't 100% stock ...exhaust, shifter, cold air...etc etc..
sold 3 days to guy in chicago who flew in, drove home...$15K
66 falcon...clean ass car...crate motor...new everything...drove to car shows with for sale signs, took to columbus ford meet....best offer i received...$12k-13K...ebay...buy it now 1 day $18,500....dude from wisconsin flew in drove home...year later got magazine coverage...& he told me just a few months ago...he sold to a guy in CA for $26K & only changed the rear tires after buying from me...
i'll probably eventually build a fuel injected blown motor for my cobra...i realize the old ashtray on top of my motor with the smokers cough...is kinda gay...but its what i have for now & the hard part is finished with the chassis where I want it etc...swapping motors is a one day job

I don't remember you donating anything but a set of struts that were on the car but it has been a while so I could be wrong. We did have some people donate some double parts but some people donated some parts that were not any good so we had no choice but to find others. We also had some people donate duplicates and I called them and asked them if it would be a big deal if we tried to trade them off for something we still needed for the car. I tried to do my best to keep up with the donations but sometimes people would show up at my house with parts that I had no idea who or where they came from. Yes there is very few parts left over from the pinks car but honestly they are not worth anything. They are just taking up space but I felt obligated to not throw them away and what was worth anything we traded for other items to finish the car. I would also like to point out that myself or anyone else profited nothing from the pinks car nor did any of the parts from the pinks car go onto my cars. Hell if anything I couldn't count the number of times I would come home to a few people working on the car and people say hey we took this off your 86 since we didn't have one. All you had to do was ask if you had questions on the pinks car and you could do that a much better way than you did before. If you would have sent me a PM and asked I would have had no problems telling anyone what was going on with there parts.

Well said Kelly, and I know for a fact that is a true statement. It still pisses me off to hear people bad mouth you guys in ANY way regarding the Pinks car. What you guys did for Amanda and I was above and beyond what anybody else did, and I will be forever grateful.

You didnt donate a fuel cell and the struts you gave us were on that car its the only set we had. Actually I think QuickLX installed the struts onto the coil overs and put them in the car. The fuel cell for the car was donated before you offered yours. If you read the post I linked it says we dont need the fuel cell so we didnt take it :HYF: The struts were picked up by someone on the eastside from Rigid and brought to my house and I never once saw your fuel cell. Your fuel cell might still be sitting at rigid shop. So maybe you should get some facts straight before you start pointing fingers. I'm not trying to start shit about the pinks deal but I'm tired of people talking shit about the pinks car when they had no idea what went on with it.

Also i thought this was a place to meet new people who love the same thing i do but everytime i read a thread like this WOW not sure i am in the right place!So if anyone would like a new freind to help you with your project or some parts or anything send me a P.M.
All of my post are in good fun! I agree with Craig, we all are one big family....:bigthumb
