Dang! Wish I would have known about this! I thought that Canepa modded 4x4's, boy was I wrong! Do you get to look in the shop? All of those cars in their inventory are for sale?? 3! 959s, 2 OG GT350's, a real 289 Cobra, M1... Dang!
Let us know about the next one, OK? (I didn't see anything on th esite but might have missed it...)

Next month Don The Snake Prudhomme will be in the house to fire up the 1967 Super Snake top fuel car and I'll have the funny car there, hope to see you guys then.

The shop tour and the cars that show up are off the hook!

Let's see if this works...finding it impossible to link pictures here:

Loved Baylands, was actually just below sea level and the track yielded some incredible times, perhaps some of the quickest in the nation.

I saw Gary Beck run a 5.39 versus Gary Ormsby's 5.51 in 1983...at that time the quickest side-by-side run in NHRA history.
