#1: pic of car cooling off after passes @ Carlsbad 10/99

#2: pic of high school drags on a Sunday up @ Sear Point 1995

#3: my sister's shoes and our old Basset Hound, Daisy, in the garage

#4: first big cc motor, 94 x 74, Pauter heads, Engle 125, 44's taken spring of 1990, looks like I never got the idea of just using a fan housing without fresh air ducts. Not much has changed.  Roll Eyes
