    Rob is the man! He said if he has to wait much longer for the new TA block he will just make it himself & I believe him.

    Update: I picked up my new power glide last night. I had it built to handle whatever I can throw at it!

    In this case we need a new icon to reflect two gears instead of three

    That we do:laugh:

    Did you have anything done to the second gear engagement to soften the hit? We are having some work done on ours to stop it from blowing the tires off when shifting to second.

    Your project looks great by the way:TU:

    John,
    I didn't do anything to soften the hit on 2nd gear. I'm hoping to be able to keep the power to the ground.. Thanks:TU:
    I wish I had something to soften the hit to my wallet..:eek2:

    As they say Speed= :dollar:spent. Plan ahead and only go as fast as your wallet lets you. Only use the plastic to get home or make repairs to get into the next round.
    Your car should do well looking at the parts used in your project.:TU:

    Frank are you going to the BPG Event in Ohio? I hope so as I am looking forward to seeing some of the Tomahawks running strong.
    Keep up the great work.

    John,
    I can't make BPG due to a wedding on the cape. Plus I don't think the car or (the driver) will be ready to compete.. Coming from a best 10.10 pass to this ride. It will be a big learning curve. I will do a lot of track rentals and any weekend I'm free I'm going racing.. Wife knows it already.. I said don't make plans that include me!! I'm racing!! Well at least I hope too..
