Jeff, I will take that bet! But since fuel is NOT $2 per gallon, how do we get him out???? Buy his gas? You make the call, I am in "Time Out" with him.. Stephen

If a Barton car did outrun me, I will know that it probably cost them 150K a piece to fund a development program that I can fund with spare change because I am the developer.

I really like going to Belle Rose, Its probably one of my favorite tracks. I am just really enjoying making new parts, cams, heads, pistons, etc for other things than 68 hemis. We almost have the Landis cam grinder done. That has been a real challenge/learning experience, and thats what its about for me. When the shootouts started, they were minimum 5K to win, and I could get there fairly inexpensively. Now we take the 5K and split it back, so its 3K to win if you are lucky, and the operating expenses have tripled.
We are now running 10,000+ rpm, 3200# Jr Pro-stock cars for 3K to win. I am fairly certain that I could run a Pro car out of the same facility, go to 3 or 4 races a year for the same money I am spending now.

If this challenge ever happened where would the best track be to have this showdown, sort of a World finals shootout, winner takes all, goes home with a big purse and the bragging rights for the next year...I'm thinking a track near sea level with cool temperatures, maybe spring time or fall or an end of season shootout...just like Garlits said a few months ago that they should have for fuel cars, rent a track and race at the end of the season, give everything you got type finals, winner takes all...So who would pay to see that type of Super Stock race, so how's the Texas air in the fall time.
