You must have some looooong straight roads too. Let's check the odometer;
97,941.3 @ 90 MPH
97,943.2 @140 MPH
97,945.3 @ 150+ MPH
You spent just over 2 miles over 140 MPH!
You are ready for Bonneville Salt Flats!

Biatchin Kelly!
I bet you had the A/C kickin' too!
Those 5 speeds are the sheeeeit, in fact back in '99 I ran Collins all the way back from Madras into Bend, 2 '70 Judges averaging over 100+ mph. Now when we arrived, Collin's Judge was livin la vita loca w/ that Tremec 5 speed but my Muncie 4 speed Judge was tellin' me it's rod bearing time.... :o
Kelly's GTO is ready for Cannonball Run baby!
I couldn't help but notice as the 1-4 pics were taken the gas gauge moved from a deep 3/4 tank to well under! ;D

Very nice car and very impressive photos! :o
How does the car feel at that speed?
I don't have the kahunas to take my GP that fast. The front end starts to feel a little light around 130 mph.

Wow!! Let me be the first to console/congratulate you. Let me also be the first to ask you what 70 parts you are looking to get rid of now ;D. Judging by the 70, I'm sure the 65 will come out very nice. Is the new owner a Goat Herder or Legend? Or will we not be seeing your fine ride again?
bendgoatracer
08-29-2003, 07:43 AM
New owner has no memberships yet,wil be a legend!!!
Ahh Kelly, Ya love 'em and leave 'em eh?
Sorry to see you let go of that fine steed, hope it stays in the Northwest.
Tell us about the project you're now on !!

Well now, it looks like I'll have to get down there Monday before Tiger run so we can spend some time on the water eh? I'm sure the 65 will look just as nice when your done, and like you said, you can't pass on that deal.

8) Let the party begin...Monday it is!
Actually Kelly there will be an initiation ceremony January 1st. You will have the pleasure of wakeboarding behind your new boat on the Central Oregon pond of your choice. I can't wait to see the look on your face when you hit the water and it's around 4 degrees outside. Your hands should look about like that 150 mph cruise, huh?
