Thanks for all the pics
I just got home from a one day trip to the Shootout for the car show portion of the event. It was great to go to a show where I didn't have the only SC. I was like a kid in a candy store. I enjoyed seeing all the mods people have done to their SCs, XR7s, and Mark VIIIs. There were lots of beautiful cars. With the exception of one inconsiderate young SC owner, who will remain nameless, it was a very inviting and friendly atmosphere. I wish I could have stayed longer. Unfortunately, my schedule was at the mercy of the friend whose trailer I was using. I had to leave long before the awards so I have no idea who placed. Congrats, though, to the winners.
I had a great time. Even my young friend, who's not really in the SC scene, had a lot of fun. She's looking forward to next year.
I hope the weather is favorable for those who are staying for the drags on Sunday.
I'll try to post some of the pictures I took as soon as I upload them from my camera.
BTW, your car was awesome. I was especially impressed by how clean the bottom of the car was.
Can't speak for Micah. but I filled the crankcase with Lucas Jello and was able to get home with it not sounding any worse than it did at the track.....still holding out hope for a bent pushrod or rockerarm but to be honest it sounds much deeper in the engine than that...we will see during the teardown and inspection...oh well bigger and stronger for next Shootout.At this rate I'm never going to get the mechanicals done enough to start on the body and paint......Dan
I'm almost positive you won a Car Show award.

Just got home at 5:00pm.
I even found a nice new spare tire for my trailer on the side of the road!!!
