Pics turned out good Fro

C00RSA - the only reason we have a pic of you and your missus, is 'cause we couldn't believe it was a bird and was taking pics of her totally didn't know it was you

Fonz raced Chris at one point but I can't remember the stats.

Oh, Robin - that Nova I mentioned is in one of Fro's pics.

It was. The 12v was. Although Fonz' is modified BUT both cars have the same modifications. Air intake/induction kit and straight through cat back exhaust or something. Chris does have a tonne of ICE though.

lets play the state the blindingly obvious game, less power, less torque, more weight.

A stack dash is considerably more expensive than a set of Nova doors surely?

is was not a proper stack dash, cheaper alternative.

plus he did not want to buy a car that was not near mint on the outside or needed work doing to it, not worth the hassle, especially as he had over priced it too.

you never know gregg you may have been a better driver in it than me

that purple nova was quite amusing, kept reving it while in the queue only to be pushed off the starting line because something went wrong, was on that run aswell i believe, which is how i ended up racing pickford.

Considering it was stripped etc it didnt do very well to be fair...
