......dale, now you're trying to make me feel REALLY old!!.......only time i ever feel really old is when i mow the yard with a 20" push mower!!........every car I ever went real fast in did the floating bit, except the '56 tbird. however, I did alter the aerodynamics on it a little. I changed 1 flat tire out of that !$%^^&&**#^%$!!!! continental kit and never put it back on the car, I threw it all in the trunk and sold the whole assembly and put a '55 tbird rear bumper, guards, and tailpipes on it, and it actually felt like it was glued to the road, no matter how fast you went. the one I'm driving now with the cont. kit feels squirrelly at 95!!!....................orvet wrote:carrmillus wrote:.........I'm assuming most of you guy's are my age(77), did you ever wonder how we did some of the stupid stuff we did and got to be this old???.......someone was definitely watching over us!!!!...............
Well Tommy, now that I know your age I understand why you don't know how to use a digital camera!
Now I feel like a kid, I will start to calling you “Sir” Since you are 14 years my senior!
Seriously though, I agree with you, I definitely had a guardian angel for some of the stupid things I did!
I got up to 140 MPH in my 1969 Olds Cutlass. She had more to give but was starting to float pretty badly.
I did get my Honda CB 750 up to 130 MPH once, and that was all she had to give. I think the previous owner had re-jetted the carbs, or I would not have got that out of her.
Bees really hurt at 70 MPH. Glad I didn't hit one at 130!

Be it car, truck, motorcycle, boat or go-cart; I've tested the top end of every vehicle I've ever owned (and some I didn't own) except for my current one. I don't have a clue how fast this truck will go and I'm not going to find out.

Twenty Sixth letter of the alphabet. "Z" Those crazy United Kingdom boys pronounce it "Zed" while in the States we pronounce it "Zee". I don't know how all y'all pronounce it down there in Georgia since like Tejas, you're pretty much a country of your own.Cutty wrote:I don't know what the heck Zed or Zee means
