That is why we stopped when we did. Tom doesn't know it yet, but the car is going to OTE for a blower brace. The blower brackets are moving around WAY too much.

The car was going 1.31 60's right off the trailer, not bad for a streetcar!
You better put the race gas tune into your car Scotty!
Thanks Jim! It went as well as I could have hoped for the first time out. Originally Posted by DR.FORD

BTW, do you have any idea how many times someone looks at my car and says "It looks awesome, do you know Jim Plimton?" I swear it has happened 20 time in the last month!

Man the first outing was stellar- I'm sure you and Tom will have the belt issue figured out in no time. Originally Posted by BOSS LX

As far as people asking-hope you can tell them we're friends.
Lastly, thanks for not including me in the crap-you know what I mean. I want no part of it.

I really don't know what you mean. PM me is you want.
No drag week? Waiting for next year? I read that the Mopar wasn't racing this year.
