Me too

It seems like every tom dick and harry in a ricer with a fart bag exhaust wants to try and see how the boxster runs. Also pontiac pilots are another group in general that want to leave the stop light before anyone else....Funny when I'm in my roadster nobobdy wants to play!

Wow, that looks sweet. What's under the hood? Any idea of what you can do in the quarter with that thing?

@ ford40

Very Nice Rod! I go annually to the MSRA Street Rod show here in Mpls. It's reputedly the Largest Street Rod gathering in the Country - have you been..??

BTW, do you suppse that your License Plate may have something to do with dampening the Spirit of those StopLight Quarter-Milers..??

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Well I guess the license plate is a bit of a challenge....goes very well in a straight line....a bit of a white knuckle ride with the straight axle! It's got a 350 chevy with about 300hp and a 4 speed going into a posi rear end by chrysler. I have never scaled the car but I don't think it goes much over 1800 lbs...it's all steel and all original (29 body on a 32 frame). MN I haven't made it to the meet you mentioned but have been to the nationals in Louisville KY and seeing 12k+ rods is just something you can't describe!
