Thanks Rich South

fredjohnston · 04-17-2012, 07:43 PM

All the SS-GT 305 engine racers should send a big "thank you" to Rich South for the HP present. Nice job and on a red light during class eliminations no less.

Awesome!

His car and his money.

first of Fred, i dont see your name on my stats anywhere, second of all being with Rich on this trip I told him in the lanes the car would only go a 9.63 to a 9.65 on the weather station, when he red lighted the car was not hoped up or anything cause we figured Bo had things under control and we didnt want to get HP'ed. so when he red lighted knowing round one was a few hours away and we needed to get data he ran it through. We never figured it would go a 9.59. Hey we did get the Perfect Strange deal in Rd 1 going dead on.
Third, Fred, i really didnt have to answer to you. Have a good day, hope you find someone else to bad mouth next.

Hey Fred, as a wise man named Jerry Ryan once said "if your name ain't on the qualifying sheet, your opinion don't mean ****". Didn't see yours! Nice run Rich!

Ok!!! I have traveled with Rich for a few years , Rich has had many a chance to go fast and he decided not to . He as always tried to not get the motor combo hit .You do not know how hard it is to do that . Put in weight take it out adjust all the right things . So to any one who races you know what I am saying . Like what was said befor if your name was not on the ladder keep your mouth shut . JUST MY 2 CENTS

What difference does it make, I believe that the combo Rich runs is the only one out there to my knowledge.

I do not race SS but i think the 1980 thur 1984 305 dish piston motor new Gt hp should be 256+9=265, because it listed at 256 0n 1-1-12 for 1982 305 Gt the same motor, i do not think it matter`s in Gt on the year of motors if it the same spec`s. The Gt hp should be listed same for all 4 years. Tom

Congrats on a great run Rich. You are the one working hard. Some people need to work harder on their stuff and less on the keyboard.........just sayin.
