There is a good thread on the restoration on For A Bodies Only.

I sent this to Gary Raash at NHRA last week. You got any pull? Pull!

Gary, thanks for your help keeping the AH Shootout alive. Looks like it has been well received as today at grade one we near thirty (30) entries. Perhaps NHRA could run our cars together for Wednesday and Thursday qualifiers at the back of SS. It would be a little extra work on the announcers and lane attendants but I think you would see an increased fan turnout. Especially if you did a small press release. Just a thought, thanks again and hope to meet you at Indy in a few weeks. Stephen Hebert SS/AH 403H

Where's the like button for this? If they can pull this off, I'll make sure to get up there rapido when they call super stock so after I'm done with my run I can watch the show. What could be better?

I love the idea of letting all the Hemi cars qualify as a group.

I was wondering if all the Hemi cars could pit together since it is the 50 year anniversary of the Dart / Barracuda Hemi cars. Since there are 32 entered that would be a very cool grouping.

This idea might make it easier for calling them to the lanes together.

Just my 2 cents.

Most of the AH cars have always pitted together for the Hemi Challenge at Indy. Sounds like they will this year too.

AHH!!!! My favorite red car..... You have the record, right? And I gave you .02 head start. What's up wid' dat'?

SS/ AH 9:30 index is too strong, but most of you guys could care less at Indy as you're not there for the eliminator but for me, the more HEMI cars the better.
Good luck Spy.
