Update,just finished being interviewed by Ray from Allpar.com and he also took some pics.AWESOME gentleman there friends.When he first got here he had forgotten his camera at the motel (on purpose I think,read on) and suggested we take his car,a 2006 Hemi Challenger.We got up to go and he said "You're driving" and handed me the keys.It has a slap-shift or some other word automatic with a 2800 stall converter and told me how shift and away we WENT.Then after leaving the motel on the south side of I-80 he says "How far to the next exit west?"."About 8 miles" I replied, to which he says "lets try that",and who am I to argue,right? So I hit the freeway and no sooner merged on and I was up to 100mph in a blink,Then he tells me he's had it up to 160mph and for me to see how that feels in a newer car,I can tell you it FEELS GREAT!WOW! I knew then we were going to get along great,The interview was really full of good questions and I look forward to sharing it with everyone when he finishes editing.All in all a great day for my car and me as well.Brusco

It was the first new model Charger I have ever driven and I thought it was pretty cool too,the only mods I noticed was two bullet gauges,tach and fuel pressure or boost,I don't know for sure cuz I just looked at the tach in the dash.Nice road car though.Ray said he drove it at the Bob Bondurant driving experience at Laguna Seca and also the Silver State Rally race and said it was a great car for both.

Well, I will consider my poll a success as 90% of those responding,taking into to account I placed the one vote (5%)that I  would only go if my car was there,(DUH) 85% said they would go to see the "GOLDFISH" race again.I wish more of you had responded but I really appreciate those who did.I am going all out with the promotion of this cars return to drag racing and have some other ideas like this one(read on).I need to decide if I want to hold a raffle at each strip I go to.The winner would would get a ride down the track in the car.I am thinking I would donate 50% of the proceeds to the winners favorite charity or I would find one for our military troops.I am also comtemplating the same type of raffle for a chance to DRIVE the car once down the strip but the tickets would be have to be a lot pricier and the winner would have to have (and be able to prove it) experience drag racing.Something to think about,Brusco
