Yes Mickey's car was at the expo, Richey Collision was painting the hood but everyone and their mother wanted their stuff done in time for the expo i told them no big deal it will get more attention with no hood. yes the car should make around 1300hp . mickey and his wife are driving it around right now breaking in the clutch and putting a few miles on the motor before we strap it back to the dyno and see what it will really do.if we can get enough people toghether for a nice cruise Mickey will be there with his car if he is in town (or maybe ill just drive it) the car drives like stock untill you get to 1/2 throttle then it just smokes the tires, the power comes on smooth and easy, it sits in traffic without overheating and the clutch pedal is smooth and easy to push. the most tame 1000+ hp car ive ever been in

Ok lets see how many are truly interested

do you guys want to do a fun run cruise Saturday march 22nd?

we could all meet up at 510 take a nice calm drive to the national forest in magnolia/ Montgomery have some fun, then stop somewhere to get some good food.

how many would want to do that?

once i get a feel for how many are interested ill work on the details.

I'm in. Post it on the Houston Area Corvettes Facebook page. I'm sure there's some people on there who would come out.

I'll go take a current look at the route tomorrow, as my car should be lower than any other. if i dont scrape and bottom out or have any probs then no one else should.
