Re: Any new S/SS cars being built for 2011
 

This one falls under "New for me".
I'm looking forward to racing my little slowpar this year. She's no where's near as fast as my old rides, but this little car has me giggling all the way down the track. Truly a challenge to drive and fun.
Testing was going well, until she ate a piston. Now new engine & spare, new turbo, new paint job (and Ed finally had time to put it all together.) It looks different but you all might recognize Jim Wahl's (Artie Leong) old BFS Spirit.
Beware of small spiders :p

We hope to see you at Thunder Valley Dragways, Marion, SD this year...

What class are you building it for?

Re: Any new S/SS cars being built for 2011
 

Hope to make it out. Haven't been to Thunder Valley since the National Open in 1999(I think that's when it was) with the Camaro. I really would like to try to hit the local association stuff(Heartland ,USA, and Midwest) if possible.

Plan is to run SS/DA or SS/CA with the single four hemi. Looks good on paper but I'll see.

See you around,
Alex

Alex : You are a funny guy!!! Love that " Massey Ferguson Red" Reminds me of " down home" in the Mountains . We always had Massey Ferguson tractors. Those ground hog holes on the slopes were dangerous .You had better know how to jump off the MF in a hurry if you hit one becuase the MF was going over. We had generations of a fued with the Kramers and thay shot me off the MF one sunny day. They were shooting down from a ridge. The sound of bullets hitting the MF saved me before they could zero in on me!!! So thanks to the MF I'am here today to tell the story and continue to spend obscene
amounts of money on race cars. Say Hi to Toli and Mom for me the Professor
p.s. in this story MF= Massey Ferguson

Hi Bill,

Great story!!! Sounds about as dangerous as living in Michigan today(kidding)! Hope to get up there again and get some dogs at Plato's. Always fun to see what your putting together next.

Hi to all of you to.

Well its not technically new but here is the 92 camaro I hope to debut at the Baton Rouge Nitro Jam. Pat Joffrion built the car back before hurricane Katrina and never ran it. WE got it back in August. It was a complete car except for a few details. We've done some testing with it and made some changes, hopefully they work. Gotta test it soon, and hopefully get numbers and stuff on it this weekend.
