So don't let age fool you, you are only as old as you feel. I sat out in 2007 due to catarac's, got them fixed in Dec. 07, and now have 20/25 vision. I'm kicking my 6.52/10/59 Malibu to the curb and putting in an injected 434" to run the 9's, and also building a blown alcohol Anglia

NO more whinning about age, just do it

Zip.

Ok, guess you called me on that one. I feel young at the tender age of 53. Like I told my buddy, it would feel good to give some of the youngsters a hard time.

They have it in other sports, maybe we could get NHRA/IHRA to put in a seniors division!
NHRA,AARP Drag Racing. :lol:
