How did mr. Webb and the Flying Cab do????   

Only saw him do one pass against the Devil's Hot Rod, it didn't look like he had the right tune in. And the DHR oiled down the WHOLE track! :D


I can't believe you took pics of my car! It was full of junk for the trip and I haven't washed it in 6 months ::)

love that car ... and car washing sometimes sucks  ;D ... our 53 barndoor has been washed 1966 last time ... and we keep an eye on it that it stays that way! Patina is not a crime ...  ;) http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=5VTIeQhNxZs

That Barndoor is radical :)

I don't wash my car very much because every time I wash it a little more of the original EMPI C-stripe kit comes off :(

Yeah, but only from the lack of sleep (we were at The Wagen until about 2am), and I left my sunglasses in the hotel room >:(
