I think Joe Gangster is Rick's son. Their posts have a similar vibe. ;)

My car works very well with the smaller battery. I don't have any neons, a stereo or other power robbing accessories. My car is substantially lightened, so saving some extra weight with the battery serves a purpose. It also unclutters the engine bay and makes the tranny that much more accessible for quick clutch swaps at the track.

And you don't have to put a cutoff switch on the back of the car to make it legal at drag strips.

who's rick? and i'm sorry if i sound rude, why am i called someone's son, i sense someone is comparing me to another and belittling/inferiorizing me by calling me a son. i'm not a son of anyone but my dad, Dr. Geng, Ph.D., M.D..

I have a heavy car, therfore I should have a heavy battery.
Thats my reasoning on this topic, lol.

He was just kidding.... :)

That and the fact the average age on this board is something in the early 20's, and Rick is 56 makes it a solid assumption.

If you don't know Rick's posts, you won't get it.

oh okay. i see. i was just making sure i wasn't called the 'son' of someone who may just be in his 20's. hehe, i understand :cheers:

I think the battery is not needed just fucking move it and don't be a pansy

What do you have in mind? Pull-start? Kick-start? I assume that you mean the small battery is not needed ;) To be honest though, after taking out a regular batt (34lbs) and putting in the 10.8 lbs I could feel a bit more responsivness from the front-end.

oh my gosh chris. lol :)

One of the starters they use for Top Fuel cars on the blower pulley. Adapt it to our cam gears. :banana:

And Rick could be my dad, and I'm 15 years older than most of you. :toast:
