    I got beat every race I picked last year and don't think it will change this year.
    But maybe I will move up the fast chain.

    He is a pretty cool old fellow! And I have to say, he basically blue printed my entire valve train and it has been dead perfect at every turn. Can't wait to fire it!

    109!!!!??? That's going to sound like mortar rounds going off! .703!!! I'm feeling like I've brought a knife to a gun fight.

    Will be upgrading rear suspension and giving the leaf springs just one job now to hold car up, was really putting alot of stress on them and getting away from that with floaters and ladder bars. Need to do this also before I try a transbrake. Picked up a Wilson manifold tapered spacer and going to advance cam a few degrees.

  25. Looks like lots of money being tossed around with all the upgrades everyone is doing. This year is gonna be the year for fast cars by the looks of it. Hope I can keep up. I have a match race set up with Greg Porter and the Nightstalker at the meltdown. Hope the ol Skairlane can live up to its name this year. Racing season is almost here can't wait.

    I am hoping that I will at least be close enough to the tail lights to know what kind of car beat me.

    What kinda times are all these damn cars gonna be running? Okie Poker, Ticky Honey Boo Boo, Salt n Peppa shaker (weren't they a singing group?) IMG_20160407_033637.jpg where the heck do y'all come up with these names? Looks like I'm actually finally gonna make it this year, wondering if all I'm gonna see is tail lights. My old turd goes 11.70's now. Hoping low 10's with the new stage 2 headed motor. Am I even gonna be close?
