About “#1wldtrk”

i bought this truck seven yrs ago was a drag truck at one time still have the same motor that in it that i run today sometimes it scares me when i have the urge to get on it.

About “dragonbird”

This is me and my husbands pride and joy. We bought this car in Clarksville, TN in May of 2003. It only had a little over 3,000 miles on it, but it had been wrecked, but not to bad. you couldn't tell by looking at it. Anyways it now has over 49,000 miles on it and me and my husband have enjoyed every minute of it. We have been taking it to shows since 2005, and the occasional run down the Bristol, TN dragstrip. (Thunder Valley). Right now my best run is a 14.03, but I know I can get in the 13's if I can just get out of the hole quicker. We have also been working on redoing the interior, I didn't like the tan, so I wanted it redone in red and black. and now dragon bird has a whole new look, since her wreck in ohio destroyed her body, she needed a new one. enter the black 2001 WS6 trans am. my husband already has the interior and the SLP cold air induction from the '99 in it, we're now just waiting for a break in the rain to finish switching everything over. so now she is technically my 99/01 trans am
