Another new guy

I bought my new 08 when Chris Nikel Chrysler in Oklahoma was selling them at half off window sticker back in January.

I had it shipped to Pittsburgh, and its been sitting in storage ever since, with 46 miles on it. Just waiting for winter to end.

Keeping it company are my 01 Harley Road King, 1970 440 Roadrunner and 1968 440 Dodge Super bee that runs mid 11's.

I'm glad they finally fixed the registration problem!

Re: Another new guy

Hi Prostock, welcome to the forum. It seems that we have similar taste in old cars, I've owned a few late 60's Plymouth and Dodges myself. (Never had a 440 though). Had a few bikes too, but no Harleys either.
Looks like we only live 2 hours apart, do you ever make it to Quaker City?

Re: Another new guy

I have been to Quaker, but its been quite a few years. Only track I have ever been to that you do a burnout up hill.

Here's a video from Pittsburgh raceway park a few years ago.

The converter is too tight, so it doesn't leave very hard.

WOW, I could really fill that list. I've had quite a few cars.

Welcome and congrats on the purchase, from a former SIXBURGHER, living in Southeastern PA.

Also owned a few muscle Mopars, '67 Formula S, '70 AAR Cuda, '78 Lil Red Express Dodge and an '89 Shelby Daytona..
Good Luck,

Re: Another new guy

I am new as well. Got may 07 Blaze Red Roadster in December. Just got to drive it regularly last week. The smile on my face may never come off. It might get even bigger when I can put the top down on my 58 mile cruise to work.
