Guys thank you for all your concern - I'm OK, the car is not (looks very bad) will wait on insurance adjuster/inspector's results - please don't post any photos or anything else - CHP took a report. Thanks. Just thinking, second chance and what's next - damn just got new mods too! Oh well, I'm lucky to be vertical......will update...I still have to pack for moving....

Wally, thanks for everything - your a great guy and I consider you a good friend now. Thanks again for helping out.

Take care and be safe out there everyone.

I doubt my new clutch and flywheel (being installed as I type) will be broken-in by then.

I'll be ready by the end of April. Planning to get my car tuned once my clutch is set!

I'll let you know, and thanks for asking Henry.

I think a lot of cars were running slower than usual last night too simply the fact that it was not that cold as it had been in previous nights... We all know cooler air is better

Mike,

My fastest time for the night was 13.7@105 with a 2.3 60ft. The track was very slippery I was spinning the 1st 60ft on DRs!! No traction at all.

I don't even bother editing my videos anymore.

Since the camera is so far back (headrest), even though I moved the seat all the way forward, it seems as if we're going 10 mph

I really need to buy one of those Car Cams; you know, the ones they place near the grille or dash . But I don't know where they sell them at.

And about the Dyno; Im not sure if its worth it for an almost bone stock G.

Thats the point. I wish I dyno'd mine at bone stock in the first place. It gives you a good starting point for your mods thereafter.

BTw, hope your ok good2go, I woulda stayed and helped but didnt wanna risk anything with the report...glad your safe and sound bud
