| So me and 2BADDBOY are heading into Rosemont today. Mr. Norms 1000HP Cuda is going to be there. If you have nothing planned come on in and join us. Maybe go out for a bite to eat after. _________________ Illinois ChaosVortech Supercharger, motion sickness pills, "hit it"  |

| All I can say is, "Whoo baby, what a ride." It was a fantastic day. Picked up my buddy in Palatine, and then we blew down the tollway heading for the show. Lot's of fantastic cars there. Some really great Mopars. I was talking with some of the guys that work for Mr. Norm. I had a long conversation with his CMR tuner who also builds the cars. I was asking about how he set them up and he told me they don't get it quite right from the factory when you want to build to the hp. He moves the suspension back and outboard a little. I asked him when Nostalgia Lane in Rockford was going to be up and runinng with the merge. He said that in 6 weeks it will be just Mr. Norms of Rockford. HERE is our new place to get all of CAMMS tuning and everything else done. This guy is a Mopar guru. He knows all the little performance tricks. I also met and chatted with Mr. Norm Kraus himself and asked him to autograph my Mopar clock that I bought and he did it. Cool beans Mr. Norm. Ok pics: Hemi Under Glass-- I saw this car years ago at the strip.  Now that's a motor  They're baaack  Mr. Norms cars        Mr. Norms Cuda  Autographed clock  no flash  They yanked this from one of the cars--they had just changed out the stock one, so it's brand new. lol, I told them I wanted to buy it. no flash, just blue interior light   flash pics    I just love the fitment of my hand on that shift knob. I have huge hands so this works well for me. We went to Giordanos for pizza after the show 2 light's down the street. It was a good day! _________________ Illinois ChaosVortech Supercharger, motion sickness pills, "hit it"  |

| Oh, I forgot. Best thing happened on my way home. I ran a 1/4 mi. on my favorite stretch of road that Iv'e street raced on since HS. Did a 12:83 off of a good launch. I'm starting to understand about torque and rolling into the throttle at launch. Did a 2100 foot brake and held the rpm to 35 mph. and hammered it through the floor boards. It's working pretty good. _________________ Illinois ChaosVortech Supercharger, motion sickness pills, "hit it"  |

| Cool pics Tom. Looks like you guys had a great time. That clock with Mr. Norm's sig is awesome. I didn't know they were opening up a place in Rockford. Sounds like that might be the place for tuning. |

That's the guy I was talking with, Jessie. He told me that he was there for the first time earlier that day. Six weeks until they open for bus. He is very knowledgeable. They are going racing again next year. He said it will be like the old days when they would hunt down all of the old names like Sox and Martin etc. and run what you brung, no rules. They will be at Byron ALOT he said._________________ Illinois ChaosVortech Supercharger, motion sickness pills, "hit it"  |
