Yeah John, but I seem to keep gathering up more projects than life span.

Very generous offer, Dennis. I think your car is probably too nice, tho. Will contemplate all of this... Keys will be wt reduction, front discs, and a cheap powerful motor.

The Duster has had about everything cut out of it you can cut. It is pretty much as light as you can get w/o swiss cheesing everything like Greg and Mark.
Any parts you need let me know, I may have it laying around.

Rob,, remember to focus on the getting the drag car(s) ready. I know that I will be tied up this summer getting the D-150 back together an ready to take to Clay City this fall. . For actual garage work and funding..That has to remain my top priority.
to do something like an endurance road race, I think that we would need to have a solid plan and even better execution.
so my thoughs are
1. we figure out what is needed, how to fund the project,,,, who is going to do what,,,over the next few months,
2. have ourselves in position to put a car together this next winter
3. have the Lemon Head Duster ready to race the spring of '13
what do you think about that?
regards
DT

Your Duster still sounds like the perfect GodsRods Duster III.
You DO wanna play cars WITH us, right?

Duster is ready for test & tune this weekend.
I put the motor plate on the Challenger engine and started installing the scatter shield and new trans cooler in the Challenger last night.
I won't set aside the other stuff just to work on a LeMONS car unless everyone else is on board and wants to go "balls out" this season.
I'm a bit "flighty", but you gotta admit... I've got ENTHUSIASM!!
I'm on board with this LeMONS thing as much as anyone else wants to go with it. I was thinking along the same lines as you as far as organization, planning, deciding lanes of responsibility, etc John.
The Lemon Head theme has likely already been done...

Did you get one of the "Package Deals" or get stuff separately elsewhere?
