because you or something that is defaulting in the camera software to transfer the images is making them small. TD does have a file size limit... but on most sites, you resize the pic to be 640 wide, and the "aspect ratio" keeps the height in check at around 460 or something. Your's looks to be 100pixels wide vs 640. (quality of the image also makes a difference on file size).

sorry to hear about the rod issue on the spirit r/t. kelly had a timing belt and a few other things, but no quick-fix rod kit..

the cars in my pictures are.. that white r/t, owned by that speed guy i guess plus brian slowe, bill baker looking at benders engine/weird coolant plumbing, then benders omni, and a fast neon i dont know the owner of.

on the other pictures posted in-line, the (brush painted) jigsaw puzzle shelby charger belongs to Barry Miles of the NCC chapter, it had just returned from the Grassroots Motorsports challenge event, the under $1000 class, and apparently placed in the top ten.. issue will be out in a month or two. I think Barry ran a 13.7 with it at the track, although Flea told me it's best was a 13.4 when driven by Clifff Sr.

I don't recognize any of the other cars, except the red daytona is probably Kelly and the blue GLH could be JonnyB and the blue/silver charger a guy named 'hoagie'

I usually bring too many extra parts to the track lol.

I forget the guys name I was running in that pic but it was a real nice T1 car. He was up on me because I missed 2nd that run.

The last pic is the Contraption.

I think it was a Cobra and he got left at the tree. The GLHT got passed close to the end regretfully.

UUmmmm............... no. been there done that. I really shouldn't complain. The axles are 5 years old and fatigue just set in. I called drive shaft shop and for $150 plus shipping it will be fixed for next season.

No problem. I wish all problems were as easy of a fix as that was.

It was a supercharged SVT - yeah, I left him at the tree - my r/t was .048 to his .204, but like you said - it wasn't enough to hold him off. He passed me right at the end of the track and beat me by .1357!!! My mph was 106.79 to his 116.78 - no way was I holding him off with that trap speed! It was still my best run of the day though so losing didn't bother me

Oh, and that "little plastic good luck thingy" is Uncle Sam holding on for dear life. It's a tribute to the original owner of 86 glhs #215.
