BOGUS COMBINATIONS & NO CLASS RACERS RUIN CLASS RACING - Page 3

Jim Harrison · 06-01-2007, 08:25 PM

Charlie, what the hell is your problem? The only time I look at this garbage is when somebody (you) tries to attack Harrison Racing. So you can add another apology to the one you still owe us. You know in 2004 & 2005 you acted like we were friends and then last year you stuck your nose up when I saw you. What kind of bull**** is that? Then we work our *** off on the worlds fastsest 283 powerglide Nova to set the record and you tell every body we switched carbs. at the end of the track. By the way the rule has been changed for 2007 about setting a record , you can now use the first run for the backup. Which is the only reason we didn't get it at Indy in Oct. 06. We confronted you about telling people we switched carbs told you could go look at it right then ,but you wouldn't. You said sorry then like a coward got on the internet and started allover. Now we have been to Memphis and set the record. What part of that don't you understand? This carb. bull**** better stop. Wesley is probably the toughest Tech man and he said we were legal. If that isn't good enough then protest us . Bob and I work our asses off to make a combination (that a lot of people have run ) faster than anybody ever has. Is that the problem? Are you jealous? Sorry! I have been groomed for this position my whole life, I've learned from every thing that worked and didn't work on our cars to make them what they are. So figure this one out KUCF FOF Charlie! I never said anything about you, Layer ,O'Malley or anyone else. You talk to us in person if you have a problem. And I am not Sarg Snafo so I guess somebody else has a problem with Kevin Murphy. As far as I know there never was a fued in SS/KA .People like you thrive on drama so go watch a soap opera and leave us alone. If anybody has a problem they can call me Cell # 812-459-6560

I don't have a dog in this fight but I think finding and building legal, unusual or underfactored combinations is what makes Super Stock and Stock great. It shows that doing your homework and working within published guidelines has it's rewards. Even if the reward is only a one line notation for a record in ND, or an occasional first round single. To the guys that keep finding the oddball/overlooked/unusual combos, I say keep up the good work, and thanks for the entertainment.

Mr Harrison maybe you need to give Mr Meyer a little credit, his chevy II has been faster than yours for a long time. He has had the ss/la record as fast as 10.46. He has had his record for at least the last 4 years, he also knows when to turn it lose and how much as not to put hp on his combo ,he is not on some ego trip. Maybe he needs to take the weight and run ka somtime just to see how fast it realy is. Unless you are doing his stuff your claim to having the fastest chevy II is his. Have a nice day.

Jim Harrison · 06-05-2007, 04:30 PM

66 chevy II , since you know so much about Tom , then you know that all his records were set at Altitude adjusted tracks. The alt. only being 1700 ft. @ Nebraska, and 1900 ft. at Great Bend. That means his current record of 10.58 was really a 10.81 factored to 10.58. I don't have a problem with Tom , he seemed like a nice guy the times I have talked to him at the races so don't try to stir this into something it is not. Now then Bob Harrison SS/KA 10.30 @ Memphis Corrected ALT. 2500 FT.
My brother Runs his 66 Nova in SS/LA Which has been 10.58 at a unfactored track with corrected ALT. of 1500 FT. So there won't be any need for Tom to switch classes unless he wants to get outrun by a different Harrison Nova . NO offense Tom just trying to stand up for ourselves because nobody else is going to.

Rick Ryan · 06-05-2007, 06:29 PM

Well Jim,

I do know Tom very well and not all of his records were set at factored tracks. Besides that Scribner 1700'. On a good day the corrected altitude there is maybe 3000'. I've raced there a lot and even when it had an altitude factor. I never ran anywhere close to as far under the index there as I have in Houston. On what the Texas natives called an average day.
If you look he went a 10.65 a couple weeks ago at Brainerd which also was not great air either. He is plenty capable of running in the .50's. I've watched that car go in the .60's at Marion SD which isn't exactly the greatest track in the world either.
Now I don't know you but your last couple sentences don't make you sound the best saying you have nothing against Tom but he couldn't run with either car. That's a bold statement.
I would love to see that race I think it would be very good.

IN 2003 Meyers Chevy II went 10.49 no corection down south at almost 126 and I have been told its faster now, just as your cars are faster than in 2003.
