Rod, go to Quadrajetparts.com and order a #3133 accelerator pump rod that uses the hairpin clip.That way you wont have to push out that pivot pin every time you want to pop the top off of your carb. Good luck with your build.

Yeah, if you don't like work this game isn't for ya. We changed something every run at VMP and we'll be changing stuff at Rockingham too.

Especially with a stick car, but something tells me Todd and Autumn Greene will be enjoying a more relaxed experience in 2020. Before you know it you'll be a second under. You guys certainly have earned it.

We feel like we've worked hard, now we just need to work hard for a good setup.

Going to the track this weekend? The bracket racers will think your nuts to change stuff at the track, but they don't run heads-up. Hope to see you at the Rock.

We are going to the track this weekend, to an import race of all things, so no Nova. We will be at Rockingham, see you there.

Some related racing stuff going on like generator maintenance (seems like thats all I do) and keeping things cleaned as well as a few minor changes to the car getting ready for Rockingham this weekend. Looks like some nice weather will be in store and we hope to leave Wednesday morning and be in before they close early parking Wednesday night. I'll get an update in with some pictures before we leave.
