The transmission was in fact mechanically locked between reverese and 2nd. No one is quite sure why. It has been sent back to Bowler and they will undoubtedly fix it. All this hurry up and wait stuff...

I just want to drive the SST and enjoy a few different sets of back tires while you guys go for some terror rides...

I'm in for terror ride and he is 30 min. from me hahahaha!get it home

Darth_Emma · 06-03-2011, 07:18 PM

I could probably get there in about an hour from here.

Brianskeet · 06-03-2011, 08:24 PM

I figure the SST could make the west coast in an hour.

The nice part is you don't actually have to get off the ride...

No Power Tour?

Funny you mention that - was at Power Tour today and going back tonight, but of course no SST. But... Bowler Transmission is one of the sponsors. They will get the tranny fixed, I have no doubt. I spoke with them today. They are definitely stand up people.

Yes. Actually wanted to run the ECTA Maxton Mile, but heard the military is taking back control of the airport. Also very interested in the Silver State Classic Challenge in Nevada. It will depend on available time to do them.

Texas would be fun and I have a close friend that lives right near Cowboy stadium.

Bruce,

The Texas mile moved to a different location. Rather than Goliad, it's in Beeville. Longer run out area to shut down. I've heard it a bit rough but... I would love to put Brandi on the same track some time... Maybe at the fest, maybe at a mile, maybe just cruising side by side...

Kyle and I have a plan, and it involves Florida.... We'll keep you informed... Think. Keys... Camaros, and cruising...

So you still haven't gotten it back yet? Man, this better be everything you wanted and more for this wait time. I'm a patient guy, but I couldn't contain myself even THIS long.

If you do get a chance for a free day or two when you pick the car up, please swing up to SF so I can see you and the car.

armysig · 06-06-2011, 12:27 PM

Are we there yet?

Wow. That's cool you stopped in to see the SST. Give it a couple of words of encouragement. The tranny will be coming back as soon as the Bowler gang (Hot Rod Power Tour sponsors and participants) get back to their shop and make that tranny purr.

Cali_Camaro_SS · 06-09-2011, 11:58 PM

Coo just let me know when it is close to due date and Ill try to stop by for the finished project and start up!!!!! I know they said they started it already but I wanna see it start and run! Im sure you do as well.
