Please just repost it or say who you know for certain own what car

I already know some of the spots I left blank, but I also know the people who own those cars, and know, that they know who own other and are Class Racer readers so Im hoping they will fill it out, because they know a lot more of the owners than I do and who owns what car. My brain is fried from days of solvent,

List who owns the car, The state the car lives in , the class planned, and the engine ordered, if its known. I keep reffering to people by number and I dont like that so hopefully I can put a name with ALL the numbers.

80 & 81 are mine. In storage for now. 2010 11 was Darren Poole Adams, 13 is mine and the last two either 52 & 53 (6.4's) or somewhere around there are mine. 99 is Dempsy Pendarvis, I have a few more. Will have to look at my notes in my office. The 2012 6.4 blown ss cars are not yet alloted.

[Bernie Cunningham]

JEEZ Jeff, couldn't you have waited to let that gator outta the bag ???????? BLOWN !!!!!

[Jeff Teuton]

Bernie, Mopar don't know it yet, but I got the specs already figured out. They have been playing with blowers on the Hemi's for a variety of reasons and I believe there is a possible ss car in the future. They have been turned down by NHRA for a stock eliminator blower car, fact not fiction. One reason the DP's have the 4 bbl throttle body is it has a spring return, and not a drive by wire. Ford got the dbw approved. The aftermarket blower people sometime modifiy the program for the dbw and Mopar is afraid of a wot stuck because the shut down system in the factory dbw has been modified by the blower manufacturer. Has not happened yet, but I think there have been a couple part throttle sticks. That is just from conversations when I told them I want No 1 blower car. You gotta admit it gets people conversing, or maybe shouting. It's all fun.

[Mack Reeves]

On my "list" I have Tommy Bjork of Sweden as the owner of 2009009. He has had it for sale since it was delivered to Donado for finishing. Tommy had decided not to finish and I don't believe John did any work on the car.. I do know it was a black car with white bumpers . Simular to Randy Warfords.... In July of last year he had an ad on Racing Junk for $125,000 and If I remember correctly this was for a finished car.....

[Bennie Ryburn III]

I have 2010 #006 DP. It is at B&B Race cars being prepared.
