I think that should make a good one.

Gump,
You are running the old North Carolina Briar Rabbit on me.............

Young Joseph (YJ) appears to be in a funk today.

He probably got behind on his beer drinking. Just catching up. :-)

With a name like "Treekiller" you should never have to look for a ride.

Here is a serious question for ya...I helped Dwight Machael this past week end at the Phoenix Nationals...We were really fast, but got beat in a heads up run. Unfortunately, a 1966 Dodge Coronet is like pushing a brick.....Here is my question.....If......if....i put Dwight"s street hemi in my (1968 SS Dart)....could it it be a GT car....or would I have to classify it as a SS/AH car..and run one the 9.30 index???? (PS,,,,,I don't think we could run the SS/AH index.....Probably....9.50....just asking..

Sure, just use the GT rules ie heaviest v8 for your base weight etc then tweak your weight according to the rules to fit the class you want to be in.

My honest answer is that I don't think so. I have a few more things to try before I head South.

I hear ya stub. What's the world coming to? When my car is not running or I can't afford to take it out I never go to the races because I am a really bad spectator. I have never had the money to go to resume building races or to go too far outside of louisiana so I am not well known. I am known at no problem where I got the nickname, racing against some of the best footbrakers in the country. Hoping to be back soon. Car is running but have no trailer. Anybody got a good 18 to 20 ft open trailer for 1000-1500?
