Yeah all we need now is a lengthy TonyD post and we can all die happy in 3 weeks.......!!!

Gotta Love these Zombie Threads!!! hahaha Whats even funnier is that I am JUST NOW repairing the tranny damage done from way back in 2007!! Fifth gear started rattling last month after a hard charging 154 mph indicated (actual speed about 143 mph) race down a nearby road(which shall remain nameless)........

Oh and SBlake01 what I meant by "sitting still" was that I hadn't improved my best times in all those intervening years.

Tony, how do you post so much everywhere???? hehe Hey Jim good to see you here as well! I haven't posted here in quite awhile. For anyone who doesn't know Jim I can vouch that he is a super dude!! Anyway I have been up and running since March 2006. I raced a lot last year at the 1/8 mile but broke a few parts as usual. I broke 2 diffs(3.9 and 3.7), a mount, an axle u joint and an ANOTHER tailshaft housing last year. I haven't raced much since installing the 3.54 rear end as I had to advance my cam timing for running at the 1/8 mile track and it just killed my 1/4 mile times. I ran in February this year and with the advanced cam timing and 3.54 my times dropped way off the mark to a best of 12.98 although the 1/8 mile was still decent at 8.27. I haven't raced anymore this year though as this tailshaft housing has been acting up as well and it may break at the track when I finally go again and I haven't felt like crawling under that bitch again for repairs!! haha The weather should cool down in late Septemeber and I will try to race in October. I need to get another 3.9 or 4.11 before bothering to hit the 1/4 mile track again though. I changed headers back in 2004 and never ran it with the old setup before wasting the clutch and main cap and piston. I put another block in it in 2006 and installed a crank scraper as well. Until I get another 3.9 and retard the cam again I won't know what it really is capable of running but I somewhat doubt that I will better my 12.8 @ 107.36 mph that I turned in 2003 on street tires. BTW I have a diesel crank with a stock 280 bore with stock 280 rods and pistons with a .070" shaved N42 with mild 272/282 .460" cam with bored SU's.

I had one of these for sale previously, but I found another one!! So now I have a pair of brand new rear struts that are ready to go on your 280ZXT or 280ZX.These are intended for 280ZXT's but they can be installed on regular 280ZX models if you want a stiffer and better handling rear suspension.These suckers list for $300 at the dealer whereas my opening bid is only $49!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2490677347

WWWWOOOOOOOOO HHHHHOOOOOO!!! Now this is what I call a vacation!! I got to ride the best ride in the world tonight in Kissimmee Florida off US 192 next to Old Town beside Disney World. It's a steam driven catapulted Mustang drag car!! It applies the equivalent of 3000 HP to the race car!!!!!!! This thing is incredible!! I had a .04 RT on a Pro tree and turned 112 mph in 1.76 seconds in 200 feet and then you stop in less than 2 seconds!!!! You guys HAVE to visit this ride the next time you come to Orlando!! They strap you into a five point harness and then you line up next to another identical car and off you go!! I got beat the third time by a girl that worked there! She had an .03 light against my .05 . She won $200 bet from the ride owner when she cut a .00 to his .01 light!! The catapult compensates for weight to get identical times and you can take your kid along with you in the passenger seat as long as he is over 52 inches tall. I did it three times and the first time was just a frightening scare!!! The second and third time was even better as I knew what to expect! This ride is faster than an F14 on takeoff !!! You pull 4.5 G's BUT the ride is capable of 7 G's but is limited to 4.5 G's due to possible eye damage from the incredible fast stops!!!! AIN'T NOTHING like it and if I was a RICH man I'd ride it every day!! Oh yeah it costs $30 ,but if it's slow they let you ride for $20 and then $10 to go every time thereafter!! DON'T MISS THIS RIDE !!!!!!
