    You just have to be patient with this old man, computers and I are not the best of friends.

  2. I think i have some pics of this thing, maybe, from the Chargerforums gathering at quaker steak a while back...

     

    Edit: found this, I believe this is it. I had that uploaded to photobucket from forever ago.

  3. Some of you know and some of you may not, but I am into what one might call Sleeper Vehicles. This is a Vehicle that does NOT look fast on the outside but it's all about what's under the hood and inside the interior that counts. So here is my SLEEPER for you to see.

     

    It is a 1990 Dodge Caravan ES and it has forged pistons, head studs, methanol fuel injection, solid motor and trans mounts, full manual valve body, 4200 stall converter, and 23 pounds of boost, all in a 2900 pound box. Yes that is the Inter Cooler you see on the front of the Mini.

     

    Enjoy,

    Chuck

     

     

    Here is the link to the photos.

  5. I used to be BIG into the Old Muscle Car Craze as I got my first Muscle Car at 18 when I bought a 69 Road Runner (the year was 1973). The only reason I got out was the prices just kept going so high that it was NO longer feasible to race one or drive one. I got to go fro a drive in the very 1st HEMI E Body Convertible ever built, it was a red on red 1970 Cuda, it was owned by my friend Paul Suloff who was the National Marketing Manager for Goodyear Tire and Rubber.

     

    Paul bought the car for one price and sold it within 2 years and doubled his money. The guy that bought it from him kept it for some 10 years and the car then went to AZ for over $2,000,000. Can you drive that car and have fun, sure, but at what risk ?

     

    I will see if I can post up some pictures of a Collection that I have been to in TN that is owned by one man. He has some 50 restored Classics and Musclecars all in one building that is heated, air conditioned, dehumidified, piped in music, BIG Security.

  6. CHERRY from chargerforums right? I'm Spankis on there too, but I'm not particularly active on there anymore as my dad is the one with the charger, also a 2006 R/T, inferno red.

     

    Welcome to CR!

     

     

    Hi Spankis,

     

     

    Yes it is ME......I figured I would come over and have some *fun* over here with you guys.

     

    Chuck

  7. Welcome.

     

    yeah Paul. I couldn't launch your car for shit! lolz. OR drive it. I've NEVER driven a stick at the track and haven't really driven a stick in quite some time. I think my best time in your car was a 14.8 @ 99 with a 2.5 60'.s LOL

     

    Nice meeting you Chuck. I know you wanted me to race the green Daytona but right as you asked me my MAF was taking a dive. I was just warming up too :(

     

    Good times. At least I was able to unplug the maf and drive home and not have it towed home :).

     

     

    That would have been a GREAT Drag Race, your S/C Regal going 13.57 against Wendy's Daytona going 13.57. It would have come down to Reaction Times for sure.

  8. were you the stockish RED charger? if so nice running with you on saturday...whooped me ass outta the hole but thats fwd for ya!

     

     

    Yes Paul that was me. You and I raced a couple of times. I would love to sit down with you and train you personally on how to Drag Race. You seem to love it as you made 20 passes or so. I have been racing for 35 years and I can show you some secrets if you would like to learn.

  9. Thanks guys for the warm welcome.

     

    Jim, I am so sorry that I did not get your voltage regulator, I felt bad not.

     

    Anthony, your Pontiac just flat flys, I was very impressed. Although I would have liked it more if the exhaust was quieter. Anytime you guys have a Track Rental I am so there.

     

     

    Mike S, as always you are a Great Friend and I for one am glad to know you.

     

    As for all of you asking for pictures of the Minis, I will post them as soon as I figure out how. I am not the best with a computer. My son does have some up on UTube under Bgreen ????. You can see him takin on EVOS and Vettes at Dragway 42.
