Picture of the cuda on the Indy 500 track
« on: September 21, 2011 - 07:30:50 PM »
We had a great time at the Goodguys show last weekend in Indy and even got to drive on the track.  The last time I drove this car at Indy was 1984 for the Mopar Nats. It was fun but somehow not as cool as when I was 16.

Of course they had pace cars but we did get up to about 80 for a short while.

I am glad you are able to get out & enjoy the beast , congrats on the Award as well .
 SO how does it feel to drive it , with all the reworked suspension Etc , does it feel like a newer ride , corner well ? IS everything working the way you planned it , any disappointments ?
Too bad we could not drive it at all while I was there working on it  :-\

Ebay is just one of many outlets I go through when looking for parts.  I still find for the most part the best deals there, so no complaints from me.  Yeah, it takes a little more time, but it's worth it to sift through the miscellaneous junk to find what I'm looking for.  If you don't like it, don't use it.  That just means more deals for me  :money: .

I think we got stuck in a time warp.   :grinyes:

What was this thread about again?   :lol:

Mark,

   That's awesome. I'm glad you are out enjoying the car.   :burnout:
