John Holmes, You need to give it a rest. I hope that you are part of the minority of NHRA racers. I know Michael Beard has been in more final rounds than you have been in second rounds. Nobody cares about class winners NHRA tech doesn't even take it seriously. Creeps like you that can run 1.2 under with your SERIOUSLY BOGUS parts that no one cares to police are hilarious. Do you really think people believe you are just that much better at tuning your combo and it is legal? Ever wonder why the hitters qualify at the bottom of the sheet looking for by runs like you?

If you are interrested just say the word and I will give you my real name and car number and what kind of car. No tricks now!!!!

Be careful what you wish for. There was a guy named Mitch Kight that kicked your *** for years if you ran G/SA or whatever class you ran. You and everyone else dodged him and he was going to show his *** at Gainesville this year but because of rain didnt get the chance. I think he was looking at 1.50 under or better as I have seen that car run that fast.

You tell me what class to be in, I think an NHRA race in the fall would be nice.

So after saying that I will call you out JOHN HOLMES. Who are you.

Tim you have a set of heads for F/SA i gave you months ago, I say its time to work on them.

Looking forward to giving more beatings next year!

"The beatings will continue until moral improves!"

Dunno, Herb... I think Piedmont Dragway would be a great host for some Class match races during a Thursday night Big Dog, don't you think? If you can keep Macy at J weight and Jamie on the bias plys, I might be able to run with them and give the fans a good show!

What's great about Tim Sloan isn't just his engines. He can also drive -- was #2 in the World in IHRA Modified Eliminator years ago, and came out of 'retirement' and won a Pro-Am in Terry Knott's car, I think in about his 2nd try. He's also at many of the events, and is a major help to everyone at the race track. His skill, advice, and friendship are priceless, and very much appreciated -- which is what this thread was supposed to be about.

Ed F. - As you know, Billy Nees built my EF/SA Turismo. I won Class on a single once, went 9 rounds in my first two races with it while only running under the index three times, and ran -.45 under once. Missed one race, and finished #11 in NHRA Div. 1. I'm grateful to Billy for getting me started in Stock eliminator, and he's another one that would do anything for you at the race track. He's another brilliant man - even if a little cranky and eccentric.

Beard you might be on to something. I hope you guys had pictures made of your cars this weekend with people in the stands at a local track. That is what sponsors like.

Piedmont use to run Stock SS combos the Wednesday ngiht before the national events at Rockingham back in the 80's. Now that would be fun, a free race maybe who knows.
