Everybody - THANK YOU!

Fordboy, Nick and I are heading out for steaks.

We'll see what tomorrow brings, but I'm looking at timing slip I didn't dare dream possible. 

I don't yet have the record, it's not a shoe in, but today, I can confidently repeat myself -

Quote from: Milwaukee Midget on September 25, 2012, 09:27:02 PM

The Midget may not take the record, but when this car hits the salt, know that I will have done everything in my power to have built the fastest damned stock bodied, naturally aspirated, five-port, one liter Midget ever to hit the salt.

Period.

Cheers!

 :cheers: 


That's where we're at.

And I'm hungry.
