I believe the 1965 Mustang is 289/225/207 for stock eliminator. Beautiful car.

Thumbs up Re: I cought a few S/SS at Atco testing today

Thanks for the pictures
Great bunch of racers, best to stay clear of that DiTocco/Van Gorp group however. My sources say they are a bad bunch!

What a great way to spend black friday, and 30.50 Barometer.

Best wishes to all!

The barometer was indeed unusually good unfortunately the track was unusually bad.

Look at the lettering on the left rear tire of the #1515 silver Mustang. It looks completely different in the staging lanes and during the burn out. I can imagine one side stretching, but how did the opposite side shrink? Did they change the tire between shots?

Is that what you get when a digital camera attempts to make everything in focus with multiple shots?

I've never noticed that weird tire lettering size thing on any of my pictures, now I'll have to look to see. I usually let the autofocus do it's thing.

Optical illusion. Look at wheels of cars on highway, sometimes they look like they're going slowly backwards or not moving at all. Somebody should use tire chalk to mimic the lettering on Jeff's car.
