Tascas car broke a pulley or something, so they came and asked me to run Hopkins. They should have that video on sometime also. He went 35 letting out of it, and I went 43.
It was a good test session for me, and a new crowd. Thanks to Jesse Kershaw for inviting us to attend. And the 2 customers that Sledfish is referring to, Henson and Wendell are running engines that are 50 behind the current versions. Maybe you could run with that, hard to say. Chuck has a new one, as does Houser and Baughman. It is pretty obvious to me that the fords are making 1200+ hp. Hopkins has a legal SS car, is about 200+ heavier than me, and a tenth or more quicker. One of those cars can make anyone look like Bob Glidden. cw |

This is what it seems like very few realize. Charlie runs the wheels off that thing. He is making good power, but if that was all it was, a dyno sheet would determine the winner.
Not to mention the fact that every race the Wescotts go to, they get double the data. Nice pass under those conditions, Looks like the Wescotts are ready for Indy. Good Luck. I'll still have to root for the underdog and hope for a Perkins/Grumpy/Visner shootout winner though! |
