In 2-1/2 hours I am buying a Chevy.
It's a 1991.
It's got a 350 V8. (this is my first V8 :) )
Yes, it will be at the races this summer.
Who can guess what I am buying? :D

3KSL95, wrong.
Igovert500, I already said it was a 1991 and a V8 :p
clawhammer, you are incorrect as well.

Fine, it's a truck then. Or a flatbed tow-truck. or something that's used for towing

clawhammer, why ruin the fun if you read the answer? :p
... I am buying a '91 Chevy Suburban and it will be a tow vehicle.
I am in the market for a 8' X 20' covered trailer if anyone has any leads in the mid-east or north-east US.
Thanks :)

Yes, but I did not pay that :)
I did not make an offer and I did not pay $4K (no way!).
They advertised this vehicle on another forum at a discounted price and I took it. :)

Damn domestics. Jekyl, you're a traitor. Shoulda bought an import for your towing. Like a Toyota. Imports all the way! $1500...I woulda got them down to $800 and a case of beer, that's after we drank the case of beer of course :biggrin:. L8...

Yeah, the case of beer can be a great tool when negotiating. It's sort of like an investment.
Btw, JekylandHyde, nice truck. Hope it runs well.

Is it nice on the inside and all? Mine is the same color combo, I'll take pictures soon. I paid a lot more, good deal man

If that's a 91 then the 91 suburban in my driveway isn't a 91...

clawhammer

Personally, I would choose kids over cars. The way I'm looking at it, is that cars/racing are fine, as long as you have a list of priorities, and you don't compromise them in order to race. But anyways, let's not turn this into a "What's the meaning of life" thread.

Neither my fiance or myself want kids ... there are a lot of things we want in life (and are achieving), kids is just not on the list for us.
It's not a priority issue, it's a preference.
To each, their own. :)

Yeah, but he wants to pull a 20x8 boxed trailer...no Ford could handle that! lolol. J/k.
Jeff, you have the TBI 350 in that truck (same engine basically in my 92 K1500). I would suggest the following: AIRAID Air Intake, Poweraid Throttle Body Spacer, and Flowmaster cat-back exhaust (70 series so you won't get all the cab noise). Really picks up the bottom end for those engines and my truck averages about 19 mpg with those mods (yours won't get that becuase of the extra weight, but those mods will help-both power and fuel economy).

Lol, no problem. *trying to agg it on* You know, what I said to do will cost less then $600, lol.
Anyways, lol, good luck with finding an enclosed trailer (they are the only way to race BTW). That "mod" is going to cose well over $600. My uncle bought one last season (24x8 tag along) and he got an extremely good deal IMO on it: $3500.
BTW, since Hyde is getting a free ride to the track, does this mean you're converting him to track only???

He is not and will not be track only.
I got the tow vehilce for 2 reasons:
1. I am kidding myself if I think Hyde will never need to be towed home. 200,222 miles and over 425 rwhp ... that is pressing my luck.
2. With a tow vehicle I can spread my radius of races farther out. Right now, I have been stuck to 100 miles (AAA+ towing range :D )
