From what I have heard about him from 3rd parties, learned and from our limited communications I have come to one conclusion.

Irv Johns is a serious competitor who wont take lightly to being bested. And given that may happen he will unleash a torrent of resources and knowledge to accomplish his given goal.

I believe that to be true 100% and I also believe he will be our toghest competion thus far in ANY arena.....its a David and Goliath match we welcome, I dont have any question we are the underdogs, but how much fun would this whole adventure be without a DP competitor like Irv Johns ?

I have told my plan to my dad, its simple, "We chase whoever is fastest, and if by chance we should for a moment end up on top know that everyone else is chasing us"

I know we will be chasing Irv for some time to come.

2 cars same builder , and ours too :) I "copied" Irv whereever possible with our limited "intelligence" as it seemed like a good starting point. I wouldnt have spent considerable time , effort and expense copying someone I feel is not "the target"

All this time, I just thought since I was a newbie, I wasn't understanding the lingo. Maybe it's not just me.

Does anyone know what the 60 foot times were for these two cars? Thanks.

Heard that NHRA dosent like the way Jeggies rear suspension looks and they told him to get it fixed before the next race. If NHRA dosent like the way its put together then why allow the car to race and hold down the # 4 spot? Suppose he wins with an illegal car? What happens then? Anyone know anything else about this?
