Soooooo..... Whatcha bringin'?

[CURIOUS RASH]

Any new Ha/GR's going to make it this year?

Got a new ride you'll be sporting? I wanna hear about it.

[Bob K]

Nope not a new one BUT the old one now has a new Tranny and I'm Itchin to get Kustm52 in SLOW drag race and kick his ass.

B:eek:B

[REJ]

New slant six powered HA/GR, come hell or high water or some other catastrophic event.
It will probably be the slowest one there, but I'll have fun being the slowest!!:eek:

[metalshapes]

Dont know yet...

Probably not the '28 this year, because the 327 that blew up on my to the Drags last year will go in something else once its rebuilt.
(And the car it will go into is too new for the Drags...)

I'm working on my T... that might be done in time.

[Malcolm]

I was with Hiboy32 last year - - - This year I am driving my '62 Galaxie (avatar) down there. I have to make it to the Roundup and back first, though!

I'll definitely be entering and racing. Right now it has a 390/auto, but I'm collecting parts to put either a 4 or 5 speed in it. The 390 is stock inside w/ a cam, Edelbrock intake and carb. 3.00 gears in it right now, but I have 3.70s that would work great with a 5 speed. We'll see!

Can't wait!

Malcolm

[Pooch]

Im bringing this.. The motor and trans mounts are done. The floors and trunk are almost done. The engine is running on the test stand and the trans looks clean inside. The rear end is in and the new springs are holdind the car up.
Hell Im almost done, just a few more nuts and bolts and I will be on the road.

200 sixer... probably won't make a run down the track but that would depend upon the beer pressure.

[Roothawg]

Same old crap.

[hotrodladycrusr]

Same old crap for me as well but hopefully weighting alittle heavier with a top and interior and running alittle better with a timing adjustment.......afterall I do have five full months to get my shit together.:rolleyes:

[flamedabone]

Just reading this thread, makes my heart pound..

The Model A is ready to go..The blower has perfect manners, so the drive shouldn't be any diffrent than usual. ET should be quicker though...

See ya, -Abone.

[chicken]

Abone-
You suck. A dang blower.......now you DO need slicks,lol. Should I bring the Caddy-powered "T" or the six-banger Falcon? Hmmmmm.......

Chicken

[flamedabone]

Chicken,

Traction was always a problem with the old combination. I really don't know what the hell I'm going to do now..this thing makes monster power. Very scary.

Can you tow the T with the Falcon?

See you in August, -Abone.

[chicken]

Abone-

I think the Falcon would pull the T (brand spankin' new hot-rod 200 SIX in the bird) but it'd never ever stop it with those itty-bitty brakes,lol. Guess I'll have to use the truck.
I'll bet that Pontiac has some bark now......think it's up to Cadillac racin? 'Course if I have to loan you my slicks only one of us can race at a time........and Hog Mtn Dave still wants a piece of me.......I'm gettin' skeered!
Later-
Chicken

[flamedabone]

I don't just want a piece of you, I want the whole thing.

Just shittin ya. The car makes killer power, but has no hope of traction of any kind, so my timeslips won't look like yours.

Gonne be fun though...

See you in 5 months, -Abone.

[Kurt]

Got a new ride you'll be sporting? I wanna hear about it.

The new digger for sure. Will be shiney and painted soon.

[Jalopy Jim]

My 54 F100 if the cubic $$ last and my furniture business sells furniture this summer.:confused:

The floorboards should be done this week and by the end of april I should be painting the cab.:cool:

[FiddyFour]

[trailer-Ed]

I really really really hope I can get my A sedan ready to at least go down the track! I believe flamedAbone and I may have a litte match set up? But if not I'll have my 29 RPU there, and if rain is in the picture, probably my ol' faithful Willys. Man I'm looking forward to this, I hope Mrs Trailer-Ed can go this year.

[FiddyFour]

. . . Man I'm looking forward to this, I hope Mrs Trailer-Ed can go this year.

I think yur cars are missin somethin out back. . . mebbe a chunk of cast aluminum for traction weight? hmmmmmm

i betcha Greezy's got a lil somethin that'd do the trick :cool: :D

[lindross]

We'll be there with GMC BUBBA's new HA/GR killer. I'm lookin forward to zipping down the 1/4 in the Krylon car as well. Should be a blast!

[Gasserman]

Hope to have my `60 Falcon done to come . Still need to replace the roll bar for a roll cage . And get the straight axle finished,too. Gasserman

[Louver Dude]

Man I hope I have something there this year if is a 10 sec 55 Chevy or a 14 sec 55 Chevy or my 53 that we'll need a calendar for I just want to have something there......Now back to the shop !!!!!!!

[ponchoman]

I'm leaving the '55 at home this year and bringing my '63 Chevy SWB. Got the 350 in it, all the rust repair done, and by August it should be totally flat black. Also, should do a lot better in the 1/4 than the Poncho, this year anyhow. Next year, plan to have the 389 in it, for a return to the drags. :D

[Greezy]

WOO HOO HAMB Drags talk always gets my blood pumping. I WILL be bringing this.

[Dirty2]

A different 32.

[bigken]

This thing should be making it's HAMB debut.........

[Stewed]

I'm bringin the old J-Bird. I lost the tranny a month ago but got a new 700R-4 today and will be installing ASAP. Dont know how it will affect the 4:56 gears I put in the rear. I'll be there any how.

[40StudeDude]

One good thing about having more than one "hot rod" is you can simply jump in the one that runs the best and drive it there...I'll be driving the Stude again this year...matter of fact, both cars in this pic will be there...

[Stewed]

Be waiting to meet you 40STUDE, and all others. I hope to be leading the train up their from Georgia but if not I will be dragging the old drag car up as a loner! This is the only event I have committed to going to all year, no matter what happens!!!! I will be in the RAMADA Friday night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hog mtn dave]

I plan on bringing the coupe again. Right now it's still broke from the last time out in October. We've been working on other projects. I did strip all the lettering off over the winter. I kinda like it nekkid but it will get redone, just have to find someone willing to do it with a brush.

[Domn8r]

Hope to have the bugs outta my coupe by then

[hot-rod roadster]

Planning on my 64 wagon, got a new small block in it over the winter with 2 fours and an angry little cam, new muncie 4 speed and 355 posi. Still doesn't come off the line as good as I would like ( maybe cause it wieghs bout a million pounds ) so might look at a little deeper gear before august. Just make the drive down a little slower.
If all else fails I will bring my roadster again, it put up some pretty respectable times last year. Gary

[Kerry]

Just some old coupe.

[Rodshop]

The nailhead Dodge coupe again this year- looks the same but should run better with another year to sort out the carbs, etc Rodshop

[Ron Golden]

Curious,

I'll be bringing our new HA/GR. I'm building a 321 inch GMC 6 with aluminum rods,13.5:1 JE pistons, Ported head (261cfm @ .600"), aluminum roller rockers, Custom built intake with 3 Rochester 2brl carbs, etc. I want to bring the HA/GR, E.T.& MPH records back to Kansas City with me.

I'll be tuning the engine on our DTS dyno so it should run pretty good.

See you on the starting line.

Ron

[raven61]

I will have the roadster finished by the Drags, so I plan on bringing it (unless it sells before hand) and the old truck with new tricks installed.

[thawkins]

Last year was the first time I had been to the HAMB Drags. I met Bob Hindman at Tulsa Raceway Park and he told me about MOKAN and the HAMB Drags. Two weeks later I showed up at MOKAN to watch. It was great, I took 120 pictures and looked at every car, most of them several times. So I went back home all excited and a few months later started building something to bring next time. I gathered up all my usable car parts and bought a few new ones. Got some steel and started cutting and welding. So far this is what I have. Still got a ways to go but I think I can make by August. Just want to make a few passes down the strip and see what happens.
Tim

[Gasserman]

Tim , The car is looking great. Hope you get it done . Gasserman

[thawkins]

Thanks, looking forward to seeing your falcon......

Tim

[Von Hartmann]

I don't know if this is a dumb question r what. I've never been to the HAMB drags, what kind of racing is it? Heads up, index, bracket?

[Rat Rod Roach]

The Mokan Morris will be back this year,
( the one that shookup the Studedude in front of the hotel
on fri. night ) next time hold-on Rog. :D It's had an up grade,
now with a glide, 5500 stall and a trans brake, if I can keep
it together till then. :eek:

[Von Hartmann]

Awesome! I talked to some other HAMBers at the Zettle Bros. Bicycle build-off today. They told me a little more about it. I'm goin to try to bring the J.

[dragrcr50]

[ratso575]

animal and I have been saving gas money ! we are going to try and drive there , his 56`plymouth is ready to cruise , my 37` truck is getting there , waiting for my radiator ...... our first test trip is july 4th. to a small town 150 miles away , anual b.b.q. and fun day .............

[Pooch]

Im getting closer and it looks soooooo good.

[Roothawg]

Looks good man. Looks like your buddy is telling another story while your old man is working......

[Pooch]

Yep Dad has been working on this car alot since his 52 is done. I have been welding on the body and he has handled final assembly on the chassis. If things keep going this smooth we will make the august deadline no problem.

[Roothawg]

If you need any help, just holler.

[Rand Man]

I'll be bringing the HA/GR and the '57 Chevy again.

[Animal]

Unless something catastrophic or stupid happens, I'll be driving my '56 Plymouth. It's slow, with 2.92 gears, but I'll probably make a few embarrassing runs, just for the hell of it.:D

I cant wait to see your car !!!

[Animal]

I cant wait to see you car !!!

Thanks! We're going to try to make the Friday Fun Drags at Mokan to make a few passes before the drags, seeing as how I've never been on a dragstrip before. I need to at least get an idea of what to do before the Drags on Saturday.:D

[50dodge4x4]

Me & the little lady will be cruising in in the 39 Plymouth again this year. I have solved a few issues that we had last year so I'm hopeing to break into the nineteens this year. :rolleyes: Fast is a relitive term, a slow ride is better then a fast walk (or leaving the broken ride home). Ain't that right Fiddy? :D Now watch me break something....:eek:

So, last year we already had a poker run with door prizes, and the Friday night BBQ arranged by now. Are these things going to happen again this year? Or did I miss something?

I gotta get a better picture of my car, jeees. Gene

[FiddyFour]

meanie face Gene :D

stickshift said you n the Mrs was s'posed to be @ the revival... mamma fiddy an i waited all day in gloomy sadness for you to no avail

[50dodge4x4]

Fiddy, gloomy sadness? Wasn't zackly the story I heard.:p :D We were really planning on making the trip, as late as thursday night, but a whole pile of stuff happened at the last minute, just wasn't ment to be, I guess. We was really looking forward to seeing you guys again. We will be at the drags, baring a major disaster.

You guys plan on attending any other event between now and the Drags? Maybe we could get together. Gene

[Tman]

Main thing is me..............doesn't matter which car or any for that matter. I missed the drags last year..........never again!

[Mootz]

Knuckle and I will be there setting land speed records in our lightweight machines. May just have to line these two up and see who breaks something first :D.....

[breeder]

beer!!!!! what else is there????:) :p
ill have nothing done and 2 that will start and drive....ugg, i should have just finished the first one , then....well you know how that go's!:rolleyes:

[bigd4xman]

I'm bringin myself, maybe a friend or two, beer and a camera. I sure wish I could bring my 63 F100 or my Modified project. The F100 is close but probably not close enough, it might make it though. The modified is a pile of parts.

[49_Ford_PU]

New slant six powered HA/GR, come hell or high water or some other catastrophic event.
It will probably be the slowest one there, but I'll have fun being the slowest!!:eek:

It may not be as slow as you think. I remember a modified at my local dirt track that ran a slant six in the early 1970's. He did pretty well, could almost match the SBCs. The longer stroke made good torque off the corners.

[mrpontiac]

I'm ordering the wiring harness for my Poncho today, so I should finally have the Blue Whale at the track! Just my 4th HAMB drags, it's about time I bring my car the whole 12 miles.

[hot-rod roadster]

beer!!!!! what else is there????:) :p

gary...your just mean!:( with it being me and shanas 10 year anny and all, i thought you could knock bout 9k off the price????:o:D:p;)
I don't know bout the 9k, but I'd throw in a bottle of the finest cheap chanpagne I could find and a cozy room at the NO-Tell Motel. Gary

[blu8503]

[Asphalt Outlaw Hero]

Once upon a time,these bikes use to take Top Eliminator.Thishttp://somer.smugmug.com/photos/31145182-M.jpg Vincent Black Shadow will be there.

[Big A]

"The fucker's not much for turning, but it's pure hell on the straightaway. It'll outrun the F-111 until takeoff."

"Takeoff?" said my attorney. "Can we handle that much torque?"

"Absolutely," I said. "I'll call New York for some cash."
