Cobra Jets.

[lstanford]

I was feeling kind of ignorant for a while but now I'm feeling better about my lack of knowledge. I always thought of Kansas as the home of Conestoga wagon racing and corn eating contests. I want to thank the first two posters for widening my horizon. I am sure they were both witness to the elusive 146 MPH Cobra Jet passes and have surely seen Bigfoot. I see there are four Cobra Jets at Great, Great, Great Bend, not to confused with Grand Bend. I see they have A/SA and AA/SA covered from 9.70 to 10.30. Funny everyone is going to the automatic trans.Wright and Ronzello seem to be the only stick Cobra Jet out there playing. I still think it will be fun to watch how the Challengers and Cobra Jets develop. I guess they both want to kick the sh**t out of them GM cars from the sixties and seventies. I like the headline in the Wall Street Journal today " Pontiac IS Going To The Junkyard". I guess this makes them permanent collector cars. Ford had the Edsel but GM wins the crown with Saturn, Hummer, Oldsmobile and now Pontiac.

I did see several Cobra Jet runs at Ennis of 140.XX MPH.......nothing over 141 MPH.
BIGFOOT ???........I'll leave that to the folks in the UP.....they are outlawed in TEXAS ! :-)

John,

Big foot is not outlawed in Texas (God's country) you just can't hunt and shoot them!

Roger Banks is on the Great Bend qualifying sheets in A/S (11.50 altitude adjusted index); so he is also running a stick in his new CJ. At the conclusion of qualifying, he is #21 with a 10.371 (1.129 under).
