I don't think the Winters would be a good idea. Somebody would end up with two U/SA cars.
I didn't know you set the record. That might be news to several other people:

V/SA 14.51 09/26/09 Mike Jeffrey - Lexington, NE
'80 Dodge Pierre, SD
V/SA 92.21 04/19/08 Norman Griffis - Johnston, SC
'84 Pontiac Cecil, GA

How about an unofficial poll, right here:

wild bill andrews and the venerable "witch doctor" gets the nod... even though he hasnt run in last few years car is still there has gone over -1.15 on old indexes and has fresh motor.

OK Steve, thanks for the info. That's what this thread is all about; braggin' rights with a little honesty thrown in.

JRyan
Bragging rights, Ha I got braging rights. I hammered Bob Shaw at the tree (albiet he was having major ignition problems) by .900 His Caddy is the fastest under the index car in the country. I was so far ahead I could see his front bumper. Now thats some bragging rights.

Jack, now don't you go picking on these unknowledgeable individuals. Betting money on somebody while holding back a couple of seconds, I mean tenths.

Other than Bob, you have got some serious players for U/SA:
Myers, Remmington, Wright, Lacy, McCarthy, Tolson, Nees, Wong, Yacavone, I can't remember his name but the green Nova from FL, Koopman, Hardy, and anybody else that I am not aware of.

U/SA oh! I forgot, Bob passed me in second gear and I watched his scoreboard light up.

Jerry, btw, I Do have every run every person has made at a NHRA National event, divisional or National open in 2009, all you see in my stats book is everybody's best runs

BTW, No I'm not it was double the amount of work to try to figure out the system, I'm retired till end of Jan. lol

I put a lot of time and hours and think and try to do the best job i know how to.

And the sand bagging deal, i laugh when i look at the mph's at times when i get the stuff.

JRyan · 12-25-2009, 08:58 AM

No you don't Joe,
You don't have any from the National Open at Oahe Speedway. Monty Jones and Mike Jeffery both set records there. I don't know if it was their fastest runs of the year. But, I made my only runs of the year in SS/NA and I'm not listed in SS/NA and Kandra Vallani ran our SS/MA car and she's not in there either.

Phillip set the 1/8th mile record.
