Questions about Bill K.s ride

Bill all I got to say is this :agree: !!!!

for sure..... Bills car looks sharp in person! i was totaly confuzed when i had seen bills car at BOR for the first time in person as the color was off from what i thought it should look like... as i had only seen in picture form. i had this weird feeling like i knew the car, but just couldent put a finger on whos it was. i finally figured it out once Bill and i started talking.... i almost forgot what bill looked like, only meeting him once before at a BOR 2 years ago.

I wish i could have seen your pass on the drag strip! i missed out on that
I was to busy roaming around, gather parts (mostly for our Thing).

Anyways, hope your trip goes well with Zen... should be a blast!
Are you guys going to have both cars (zens and yours?)

BTW bill, do you have any leads on where i can find a front bumper impact strip for the europa bumpers? i cant find them anywhere!!

Hey Bill,

It was nice to see your car on Sunday! It didn't click till later, I was like, 'hey, I know that car' and then I went back and checked it out some more. Looked great. I thought the juxtaposition of your car next to the rat rods was funny!

How was your run anyway?

My first drag-race was like many first-time things I do -- jump in and make all the mistakes. It started by not having the borrowed helmet buckled as I approached the lane, so I fumbled with that. Then I had no clue about staging, so I got schooled while delaying the show. Then I "deep staged" without knowing that it's okay. The starter guy had to wave me down the track with a loud "GO". After missing 2nd, I started to have fun.

So, yes, you did miss a good laugh...

Zen is flying out for business, so we're making the all-nighter trek in my car.

I'm cleaning the pollen out of my carbs that I picked up doing Misquito Ridge Rd and oiling the filters. The entire engine bay was coated yellow/green! EGT sensor shows #4 running rich on idle and lean on decel at cruise -- idle circuit... I shot some video, but the CruiseCam mount I have picks up all the car vibration and the video makes you car sick. Awesome road though!

Euro front bumper rubber was taken off a euro parts car in Germany. More here
