Hey Danny... I will have to see... Is a top 128 deal? Or an all run? Sounds like fun... If i can get it to the INdy Divisional, with no major problems, i might just have to make that one...its only 3hrs away from me

If they do it this time around like it was run in 2001 at Byron,, they had, I believe 186 stockers on the property,, and I forget how many Superstockers, which is why many referred to it as the "Woodstock" of class racing.
Nitro Joe can correct me on this if I'm off on the count,, but it was a memorable event that I'll always be glad I flew out to see it. Take care.

Finally finished wiring the MSD 6AL/2step/Blaster2 Coil up today. Got it running, set timing 34*, sounds real good...just got to tidy up some of the wires, that were there before i hooked it up. Anyone running a the same parts, and are the Blaster2 coils problematic? And should i have mounted it straight up and down? Thoughts?

Im already hearing that i should mount coil straight up... no biggie, will correct that...
