Re: #1 Qualifier In Stock At The US Nats.
I think Bob has been retired from racing for a few years.I could be wrong,but i really doubt if he comes out of retirement to run the US nationals.

Re: #1 Qualifier In Stock At The US Nats.
Charlie, take a look at your time slip from Belle Rose when you ran Bob Shaw in the CIC race. Remember I said to you at the time " that's nothing, look at his MPH, it's the same as what I run, and I'm going 14.50's". There is a whole lot more in that car than you think. Don't be going crazy on me and be bettin a hun, youd be loosen a hun.
Ron Ortiz U/SA I saw his et & mph on the scoreboard before I crossed the finish line.

Re: #1 Qualifier In Stock At The US Nats.
A funny story (to me) that Bob told me one time was that he would get just past the 660' and set his cruise control for eliminations.

Re: #1 Qualifier In Stock At The US Nats.
I hate to say this but if Bob did show up with the Caddy I think that he would get his clock cleaned. Sorry guys but I've got to go with the 350 Chevy at 165 hp over the 350 Olds/Caddy at 186 hp.

Re: #1 Qualifier In Stock At The US Nats.
Wow, really Billy. Heard from a little birdie that Shaw has gone 12.60. And you're saying the truck is faster. Wow.
Hey Charlie, looks like you be gettin a hun. Ron Ortiz U/SA so, i would read the scoreboard a lot sooner

Re: #1 Qualifier In Stock At The US Nats.
Im with Charlie I dont think anyone can run with the truck, a really well prepped one
should go a square 2 seconds under without breathing hard.
