I may be working on an Alcohol Funny Car again, and I am equally serious about that, so I will have to juggle things around. I do not have any allusions of grandeur of doing well in points, so I have to weigh the cost/time/return on investment trying to run stock at every race. I have a few goals for the year, revolving around e.t., and Indy/class run offs is the big one.

Yes you can use the present year or the last year whichever is higher.

Drooze, you can put the gauges in the heater AC control holes as they were shipped heater ac delete. Mine are in the holes as are most of the others. I ck'd with NHRA before I did it..

I figured it was kosher because it was a delete....but well wasnt sure....seemed like it should be...it HAD to be....I mean unlike me this isnt the first NHRA legal car they , or you have built...it is mine....but Im pretty literal on rules when in doubt follow the letter...and well....didnt want to bug Bruce anymore than I already have

.....damm....I missed the boat on that one, didnt even think about it....well....sortof Im running a full electronic now so.....Hmmm....maybe I can put little round 2 inch fishbowls in there....think a goldfish can survive 2 g launch and decel ? without gravel of course...that would just get messy

Ive heard tell this is Car #35 .... can anyone confirm before I add it to zee list ?

According to Competitionplus.com, Roy got it for Christmas. Photos of the original and the new car. Also notice in the pictures, a full size practice tree! Roy was a tough competitor. I grew up watching my Dad (Jerry Jennings) race against him. I will definitely follow Roy's races. Now, if anyone could give an update on Steve Bagwell. He was another driver that send us home early many times!
