Took the Chalon out with Markydoo today. He came by at just the right time. I was finishing it up and took it down off the jackstands and took it for a spin to heat it up. Well, it didnt over heat. It ran very good actually. Had really good acceleration and it was really smooth. It takes about 3 or 4 pumps of the brakes to get them to work though. On the last little run up the street, I wanted to hear the 4 barrel kick in. Took off slow and then hit it, Wow, went to shift and the shifter broke in the rear so it was stuck in second gear. Now I just need to get my welder back from Joe so I can weld that up. However, it wont be making the trip up for the WCC. Got the car up to around 60 in a heart beat and then it started shaking from the front end. I have not taken it in for an alignment. Its way off. Money is a major issue right now so the car of choice this year will be the little stock 2 liter car in primer. So I am not touching the Chalon again till after the WCC, all the focus is on the stock car. See you all in a few days. Maybe Mark will chime in on what he thought about the ride. He is the first to ever ride in it.
