I got a feeling we will be the only 2 speed car in the class

Everyone else will have a three speed

Oh well - we are working on some secret stuff with our 2 speed - "film at eleven"

Ron, don't tell me you didn't know that your car only came with a two speed when you purchased it. Please don't tell me that you didn't know that your car was normally aspirated when you purchased it.

Just trying to understand some of your posts. It's me, I'm sure. I'm a little slow sometimes.

Lol? 10cyl is not, but it doesn't make it's own atmosphere.

Well, Mr. Durham should have purchased a Mustang then.

BTW - I think they are making some three speeds - soon to be announced and recognized - but so what as you point out it still will not make its on atmosphere

Mine won't be there. At 9.70 you don't get into Stock Elimiator. There are 50 copo's with a 2 speed, no manuals or 3 speeds but they got a 3 speed. At 3000 lbs minimum for a v8, mine with a 360 (30 lighter than a hemi) weighs 3060 with no driver. Fat chance of getting to minimum. A proposal from Mopar for a 426 Alm block to make it closer on weight by 100 lbs and close the gap from 36 CU IN over our biggest not to mention 4 points of compression was turned down. I think I will just take my 25 cases of beer and run the natural classes.
