Check the recent threads on the Thunder Valley Dragway pictures, for more info on Matts car. I was talking with Al Kuehl about this car in the more recent posts to that thread, and per Al, the car ran a 10.68 @ Brainerd last May!!!

That 273 has gone 10.63 at Earlville, Iowa if my memory hasn't left yet !........ John

He must use the steel 340 crank! Those 273 cranks are steel but they are really crude. Jim

Yeah Al, He must be a magician! Jim
