Last day in Indiana
It's the end of my time here. I did a lot of stuff with the G8 when it wasn't on fire or being wrecked.
Tire Rack G8.
GONE, 3 times.
Hot Rod Power Tour, 4 times.
Ames Tri-Power Nationals, 3 times.
Holley LSFest, twice.
Winner LSX shootout in 2012.
NA build that ran 11.35 @120.
Vector turbo build.
Vector turbo build with new cam and turbo housing. Fire after 22 minutes of logs.
Cory's turbo build. Ok, I supervised Cory and Tom. Ok, I mostly yelled at Tom. LOL
Travis 404 stroker build. Good times.
Car gets loaded on the trailer today. My neighbor will need to pull it out of my drive. With a 24' truck, I won't make the corner and I don't want to wipe out the mail boxes.
We are headed to Texas tomorrow morning. The G8 and my 2 dogs Buzz and Emery. I rented a 2018 International diesel with cruise control. Should be a nice ride.
Lets see what San Antonio has in store for us. The first opportunity I can get to Cars and Coffee San Antonio, the G8 will be there.
Charlies coin will be in my pocket.
Rest in Peace Charlie!
