It's only the second motor this year. I guess I'm trying to live to close to the edge. The engine had a valve train failure, so maybe we can salvage more than than the timing chain cover and head bolts.

They just called super gas to the lanes, super stock class is next.

Right now I am looking for a place to race. I can almost qualify at Indy, my car is to new to race NSS. IHRA is not close. And I have a good car.

Larry....Thats NO excuse.....The IHRA races are a lot closer than that western swing you went on ! Yes you have a GOOD car, A GREAT looking car, and you just MIGHT find that you would enjoy yourself at an IHRA race sometime. Crate motored cars are factored a LOT closer to thier true potential than these new DP's and CJ's are in NHRA. The new stuff has its OWN class in IHRA so again there is NO excuse other than you just dont want to think you might be "Lowering" yourself. There are a great bunch of good people over on the "Other side". Think about it. No PRE entry, either. Sorry I just HAD to jump in and say it.

It rained overnight and they are still drying the track. Super gas is in the lanes and waiting for a couple of more spots to get dry. The sun is trying to come out a bit, so maybe it will help the drying.

Here are some pictures of tear down. In another post someone said Gene Monahan was protested, I can assure everyone that he was not. He was chosen randomly by tech

Pinks All Out. They would love you at their events. You have a pink Mopar that runs in the ET range they often choose. You would be on TV for sure. And only $60 entry to race heads up in front of packed grandstands for $10 grand. I ran the one at Norwalk last week & it was the most fun I've had racing in a long, long time.
