Re: Where is the K today?

It's still hiding in Ohio with the last team to pick it up. They've tried to give it away but nobody has taken it yet.

Fourteen time loser. You'd think I'd know better by now.

Re: Where is the K today?

We tried to, but didn't realize it was in Ohio. Wouldn't have been able to get it to Florida.

Wait the K is in Cincy? I got a team member with a 40' toyhauler in Columbus.

Beware - she'll make you bleed....and then miss her...if anyone gets 'er on track I have a keepsake that ya'll will need for the parade laps...

(BTW, check out how close the K was to winning class C back at Buttonwillow and you tell me it wouldn't be _easy_ to win class C. . .)

Someone should get it and put a Buick 231 in it

Re: Where is the K today?

Is the K still in Ohio? Some incoming freshman at UAH (myself included) have had the brilliant (inebriatedly wise) decision that we should stuff a SBC and 4T80 into something for Lemons. K seemed like a good idea

Re: Where is the K today?

It is in fact still in Ohio. Current status, as best I can recall: needs an engine, a windshield, a fuel tank, and an unspecified amount of cage work. Also needs a young priest and an old priest to banish the hellish nightmare of a wiring harness so you can start over from scratch. Also probably a million little things; keep in mind it's been sitting for 4 years now. There's also a truckload of parts, boxes, and spare tires that the owner would want removed along with the car.

Re: Where is the K today?

Let's give it to Mr Regular from RCR to do the Retreat from Moscow rally next year. Then force him to race it.

Re: Where is the K today?

I'm not sure any of the K car's issues can be solved with the power of YouTube celebrity, lol.

Re: Where is the K today?

Yeah, I just think this car deserves a real shot at glory again. Someone with the tenacity to undo the year and a half of piled-up kludges needs to pick it up and be a hero. I'm just not enough of a sucker for lost causes to actually do it myself.
