Chris, was that really your car? :eek

WOW! and no trailer in sight!

If so congrats! No more Trailer Queen jokes for you.

[SurfnSun]

Nice....is that our friend Zabaz?

 

[*89x2*]

Luigi, I wish it was my car however, it does have ties to me - it is the first Aerobody car I fell in love with and the reason I bought the one I did

That car is Zabaz R.'s #89-005 B2K - the one that was on the cover of Car & Driver, May 89

Chris,

What were some other noticeable differences from the prototype Aerobody kit prior to Callaway/Deutschman finalizing on the overall kit look? Nice to see a Callaway represent in 1/4 with low 11's!! Do we have any members here hitting 10's...........anyone?

As impressive as that run is it's almost 1/2 second off from his best. :cool

Kevin, has your car been down the 1/4 mi?? I suspect yours would be close - esp. w/ the flames and all shooting out the back of yours

I know Luigi took his but did not run slicks & skinnies like 89-005 had - He won a nice trophy for his runs

 

[90Callaway]

No, I have not had it on a dragstrip... yet. Maybe this summer if I get all the u-joints replaced first. Then I'd try it with some drag radials. At least I'd have some chance of getting a little traction and not breaking anything.

Yeah, I suspect you would have traction issues, Heck - we all would have them w/ the gobs of torque in our B2K's :eek

I read that Zabaz replaces his u-joints every season as a precaution, good advice I am sure

 

[HuggerC8]

Chris,

Everytime I look at your animated poster boy, I crack up so hard......please discontinue using that one! LOL LOL LOL

p.s. Pictures will be posted tomorrow
