Neither can I !! It's hard seeing and hearing about your racer friends heading over to the track and what's going on with their racing pursuits while you stay home every spare waking moment working on your own car so you too can get there some day. Some of them are pushing me onward with this build because it's kind of unique, some of them are still shaking their heads and asking me what the H I'm doing this all for.

Got curious tonight and added up all the expenditures since the beginning (about 9 months ago) that I had on part store tickets, Jeg's tickets, Summit tickets, NHRA fees, and so on plus the initial cost of the car body ($250) and the rear end assembly with Moser axles, gears, and the install that I had a shop do way back in the dark ages. ($700). I even threw in $500 extra for misc expenses in case I forgot anything.
It's still a "nickel" rocket, but not by much. Sure to be well on the way to a "dime rocket" before it's all over. Main thing is that it eventually becomes a "rocket."
