Not sure How many, all together around 35 or so.
1976 to 1983 B/SA NHRA & IHRA a number of times (TK Power)
Artie and Ray would set it then I would reset it.. lol
Then came Super Stock,,, 427/430 (Bill Dejohn & Mike Keown Power)
SS/CA a few times then I ran into Butch Williams and Mike Heintz,,
I would set it and they would take it back.....I learned my 427 couldn't run with that 454 , lol
In 1989 or so I had MPR build me another Corvette,, BIG RED
this one for ss/ea an ss/fa 454/390 ( Tom Boucher power)
Then I ran into this Leon guy,,and buddy it was on ! (lol)
In the mist of all this Butch and I had words !
I had Matt Carifello/TK Build me another CA motor,,,
reset the CA record in March that year,,sold it to Dave Thomas and went back to the
454/390 . I have to say over the year's I had more fun and made alot of friends
that I'll never forget...............

Well I did my part. Only tapped it to a 13.05.
But now I'm quite upset with nhra. My "bucket" class hopes are pretty much done for. Might just show them what a record is supposed to look like.

Bend 'm over Artie!


OK, I have 4 current IHRA records, no current NHRA records (right now). 14 former NHRA records and 6 former IHRA records in classes from AF/SA to T/SA (co-owner) and many in between! It's been fun! Jim

While digging through my archives last night in search of a specific 1999 Mopar Action, didn't I see your national record setting under 5K shadow(I think), featured in one of the magazines from a era back in the roaring 90's. Looks like it could be competitive today.

It counts too!

Interesting how it appears, based upon the above-data, that the stick-shift cars had the upper hand back then.

I also think it's funny that a good running F/SA car of today could have set the A/SA record in 1988. LOL
