"Live" from US Nationals 2018 - Page 18

When we drove by a bit ago, Larry Gilley was leaving and a car that had Rinke on it was pulling in. I didn't get for sure who it was but it was a white Copo!

So Gilley is good for sure!

Welker, Wong and Hale were all putting back together. So I assume all of them are good. Don;t know about any others.

I think all the Mustangs are pulling a rod and piston.

BTW, since when can you show up for teardown with the manifold off and just say "Oh, yeah, this one that is already pulled off is the one that we ran yesterday"??? Things that make you go hummmmm!!

WHO got away with that? They are supposed to be sealed the night before.

Larry, who did that? I thought breaking the seal was an automatic DQ??

Interesting that Morehead was a full .05 slower to the 60, then .04 quicker to 330, then a tick slower the rest of the way.

60 ft on rear tires? What engine is both those SS/JA cars ?

I would defiantly say Moreheads 60ft was with the rears. He was way up there !!!

They’re both the 88-89 L98 rated at 270 (assuming both have aftermarket heads which I’m pretty sure they do).

You should NEVER be allowed to come with the intake off !
