Have you seen the size of Bubba?
I would hide also

[Larry Hill]

Shane I used .018'' because that is the difference between the 260 HP
10.1 to 1 CR gasket and the 285 HP 10.5 to 1 CR gasket. I was thinking it could have been a honest mistake.

I was not at Maple Grove for the race but I do run B/SA so I thought I would pay attention.

Nobody goes to their friendly neighborhood Chevy dealer and buys 260 HP gaskets knowing damn well they don't have that combo , and anyone who just spent their hard earned coin on an engine would more than likely replace the gaskets with the ones set up by the builder !! How about all those lads in Epping who lost to this Saint when he was on his way to the semi's ?? Sure it was dial in time but a higher compression engine is more favorable in any weather conditions !! Bubski would also say that anyone who is praising this chaps morals or integrity probably has a few sins of their own they'd like to be absolved of !! Cheers !! And thank you Class Racer for providing the platform to air out these issues !!!

I'm only going to ask you once... tone it down. Talking in the third person is childish, and not having a real name does not help either. You have a right to an opinion, but show some respect. You shoot your mouth of again without showing respect, and it will be the last time you post on Class Racer.

Sorry folks, I should not have posted any details unless I had all the facts. Thanks Shane for giving us the straight scoop.

Shane. Thanks for the correct info, my apologies as I was told .022.

Cooter thinks Bubski wouldn't say **** standing in front of Bubba.

What asshole talks in the third person. Crazy

Yo Ken, well spoken on the response. Clearly the person that refers to themselves in the third person is mentally challenged.

Larry Hill; you and your wife are awesome people and I have had the pleasure of experiencing that in person on more than one occasion. My only response is yes you run B/SA on occasion. However according to NHRA points standings there are 930 people that run stock eliminator, yet you are the only B/SA competitor that felt the need to comment on this site.

Whitehead; you and your dad are awesome people and no need for an apology. I would only ask that you or anyone not post things unless you heard directly from the source.

Lastly, I donÂ’t post on here, Facebook, or any social media outlet often. I must be too busy running a business, working on my cars, or having a life. Please refrain from your keyboard and visit your local track as IÂ’m afraid this sport is slowly becoming extinct. My intention is not to offend anyone, I simply feel the need to defend a friend who does not look at these outlets.

ItÂ’s sunday, enjoy football, and have a good weekend. See you in Virginia and if youÂ’d like to discuss any of the above mentioned topics in person stop by my trailer.

Well said Shane,

I apologize if my earlier posts were taken out of context, I built all my family's motors for 3 years before we realized it was a losted cause due to time, power, and longevity.

Some of you have to realize it's not 50-60 years ago when you could work a 40 and have the time to do the r&d to make power gains. While having a house, family, and everything great that comes with it.

If anyone wants to talk more, because I am horrible at this online stuff, feel free to call Portatree and ask for Steve. Or show up at the shop, address on the website.

WOW! My apologies to everyone. I didn’t mean to stir up a hornets nest.As Someone once said “ can’t we all just get along”. Lol. 🤪🤪🤪

[Frank Castros]

Once upon a time we were DQd at the Keystone Nationals for a cam lift violation (really a Rocker Arm issue). It was unintentional and our fault as we thrashed to reassemble the engine to make the event.
It happens. Maybe a great racer like Bubba will respond to the naysayers of this thread.
