50+ thread

The car show I go to which is at a Farmer Boys restaurant is a pretty good show with a lot of 50 plus yr old people that are regulars . We bench race a lot and have fun . I've been going to this location now going on 8 yrs and still have fun

The person who puts this show on plays appropriate car guys music and have a raffle and best of show at the end of the event . No one here at this show bad mouths or makes fun of someone's car

During the colder Winter months we will see maybe 20 cars and during the summer months 30 plus cars

 

The cars that come to this monthly show range from fully restored 50's thru 70's era cars , custom street rods , Barrett Jackson cars to drag race cars like mine

 

I think the San Diego shows were just too diverse. I've walked through other shows, including the bigger ones like Good Guys, where most everyone was having a good time and talking and really enjoying themselves. And I still like to walk through occasionally, but it'll be a while before the 64 is anything more.

 

Whenever I pull in or any of my friends drag race cars you should see the crowd its so funny . its like they need to stare and drool , ill leave my engine running and the cackle of a sbc idling at 1200rpm makes them quickly walk over to my car

If my friends pull up in their cars they quickly leave mine and walk to there's . If I throw a rev then they walk back to mine , its so funny to watch LOL!!!

 

The last 2 car shows I went to with the AMX had people thinking I had an auto. Lol.
I do this low power, low rpm quick shift to practice and not stress the drivetrain.
Yeup had one guy thinking I had two cars....

 

Try pulling away with 4500stall converter and manual valve body , the people there will do whatever it takes to get to the sidewalk to watch LOL!!!

I usually will flash the converter to get the tires to chirp

 

U got a ratchet shifter in that with rev valve body ???.

 

Nope Hurst quarter stick !!

Hey now , if a Street Outlaws car has that shifter so can I LOL!!

 

Yea but they don't shift and even have air shifters.
Put a lenco in it or 4 speed and super stock it

 

Seriously, auto trans technology is far advanced, pulling gears is a lost art now.

 

Well I wouldn't want to give Chris up so nope not telling :}

Cool car show...nada

Cypher wouldn't lie to us, would he??

 

would he look me in the eye and say that


cut my hair and trimmed my face

 

Lenco's are $$$$$$$$ and are a nice set up , a 4spd is just not consistent and breaks parts
