    I'm coming with at least 2 other people so it looks like 5+ :D:D:D


    No biggie . . . not everyone is on the HAMB. Weird I know ;)

    The florida billetproof threads had maybe 10 different people post up in it . . . and then there were 400+ cars and big's was packed out.

    What all was wrong with Gene Fultons gasser? I heard Mr Kepner saying something, but couldn't exactly hear what was said.

    All in all a pretty good show. Mechanical troubles plagued a lot of the gassers this weekend.
    Bad Penny - Transmission
    Hound Dog - Transmission?
    Nightstalker - Drivetrain?
    All Business - Clutch
    Moonlighter - Not sure, had problems wanting to fire back up
    37 Chevy - Seemed like carb troubles
    Grand Illusion - Puff of smoke during the final round, not sure if its hurt or oil blowby
    Hope none of the problems are too serious, and can get them back ready for the next race.

    The Reaper, Pale Rider, and White Trash had some pretty good saves.

    These guys are pounding on them for the fans though. IMO I'm surprised they hold together as well as they do.

    Seven cars with breakage, maybe its time to stop using "nostalgia" parts. Four of the seven with transmission or drive train problems.

    The track was set on kill . . . :D

    High RPM + stick always seemed like the best chance for breakage, but I don't know exactly what went on other than what I saw from the stands.

    I think Quain would probably keep the rules as-is unless a lot of the guys running wanted to change it.

    Yea, I think the rules are fine. Honestly this is the first time I've really seen them with problems. I think most of the problems were just bugs and kinks that you have with any car.
