Yesterday I drove down to Baton Rouge to visit with Randy Holden from Mopar Collectors Guide.  On my trip there I saw an Orange/black Daytona loaded on an open trailer stopped in Denham Springs, LA.  I'm pretty sure he was heading to 'Dega.  This was right off I-12 and was around 10:30am.  Does anyone know who that was?? 

I will be in Talladega on Saturday.  Wish I could make it to the full event, but at least I will be there for the Museum get-together.  See you there!

I bet that was him.  I remember a white vehicle pulling the trailer.  I'm ready to get there!

A friend of mine saw a Superbird on Wednesday pulling a trailer on I-40 going east at the Arkansas-Oklahoma border. Dega bound.

Remember the average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.

The average response time of a 357 magnum is 1400 FPS.

The Superbird had a trailer hitch and he was pulling a small enclosed trailer. Did I spell "pulling" wrong?  ;D

It has air shocks. Does that count?  I think I'll leave them on there. We're going to be making some long trips and my wife's luggage gets kind of heavy sometimes. That and I might buy some parts at some of the swap meets. That's one of the big advantages of b-bodies over e-bodies. We always had to use trash bags for luggage to get everything into the cuda. And, I couldn't buy any parts at the swap meets. The cuda was easier to park though.  :yesnod:

Thanks..... I have to admit.. The more I drive 'Tona, the more I'm enjoying her.. The 4:10's are a bit much, but she was still fun. I'll get that fixed along with the heat (excessive exhaust manifold temperatures).. I'm going to put on another set of heads.. No biggie since this isn't the original motor anyways.....
