The big Chryslers at Carlisle show is coming up next week!
For those AERO fans who are going stop by the Troy Angelly Restorations display and check out our freshly restored Superbird!
The location of Troy's booth is L 116-122 and M 118-119.

No Talledaga for me. I'm spending the rest of my summer weekends in NH on the lake......where I can cool off.  :2thumbs:

Ramo Stott checked out Mopar John's Bird.   In the 1990's, Ramo still had an Alpine White street Bird with 9000 miles.

No, only had it barely into third with the 3.23 gearing that was in it.  Since then, I have changed the rear gear to a 4.75 which is what was run on a mile dirt track.   That gear set is perfect for moving the car around.    With the big diameter tires, it feels like a 4.11.   It would be perfect for some laps at a track like IRP when they did the laps for Monster Mopar.

4.10 gears at IRP is pretty fun. I was taking turns at 45-48 mph, then he merged it on straights. Never did get to 85 but was over 80 before hard on the brakes.

What an experience that must be Doug, I can barely imagine.  :laugh:
