Frank, where did I leave the gas can for my lawn mower? I gotta get him on speed dial, this may have an upside after all.

Ed, you're delusional, I live 175 miles away from you. You're antics aren't working.. try again..

I'm not the only one who thinks you're a little wierd as evidence in this and other threads..

Sure, couple shots over the years....

It has twin 800's, Bmax drives, just under 90mph. Upgrading to AFR 357 AFR CNC'ed heads this winter so I'm not sure what it'll run this year.

I've got about 300 hr hours on them since I bought them in 2006. They've held up pretty well considering the IMCO Extreme SC's wouldn't last more than 20 hrs behind 700 hp. I upgraded the engines to 800's in 2007.

I've found the lowers need to be checked every other season behind this power (every 100-120 hrs). I've been replacing bearings every other season and just replaced my first lower gearset since new. One drive the gearset looked really good and the other was starting to show some wear so I replaced both gear sets.

I spent about 8 hours re-shimming and building the lowers yesterday. I hope to get to the cylinder heads on in the next couple of weeks with my goal of testing some time in April.

Not the greatest quality but here's some video my buddy took on his cell phone on the AC Poker run in 2010. The picture up above taken by Sharkey Images was taken somewhere off the Jersey Coast north of Atlantic City during the poker run.
