    Nitro Jim and I got the rest of the motor back together last night. ... Spun it over and she had good oil pressure, so we're all set to fire her up Saturday.

    We fired the car up today in the driveway, no problems. Looks like we'll be ready for testing on the 18th.

    Lots of rain this weekend, so no testing at Famoso. Looks like we'll work on polishing wheels, building clutch packs, and fine tuning some spare parts.

    The 6.0 index keeps the NHRA happy and no need to PRO cert the car. I'm good with the 6.0 number... topend.jpg

    The 2017 Good Vibrations March Meet is in the books. We didn't have the success that we were working towards. The car made a stout pass on Saturday down a tricky track and ran just under 6.0. As Maxwell Smart said, " missed it by just that much." I can't thank Steve Be Cotte, Enrique Esparza, and Jim Holtz enough for all the hard work. Jim can drive a race car! They work really hard for a cold sandwich and soda. I wouldn't want to go to the starting line with out them.

    ...Thank you Jay Johnson for all your support and meals at Milt's. You bring a lot of humor to our team.

    Thanks to Dan and Wendy Debo, and Daroll Webber for coming out and jumping right in and helping out. I'm happy the car hauled ass for you guys.

    I'd like to say how much I appreciate having RJ Trotter with us at the races. He brings a lifetime of experience and a calming influence to a guy like me. We're very proud to have him on our side.

    Pretty cool stuff right here.....

    Pic's from March Meet 2017 at Famoso Raceway.Features Saturday.Only one qualifying run today and no one bettered Dan Hix's number one qualifier from friday,but the cars were trying to get dialed into the 6.0 index for this class.The best run of the session even though it was to quick was Jim Holtz's 5.97 run.All photos are ©Draghead Photos & Videos 2017 and are available for purchase. -------------------- Contact me at: [email protected] -------- No removing or taking of any photos from this website without purchasing or permission from Draghead Photos & Videos.

    We sold off the old TAG trailer and now own this bad ass trailer. It's a 1 owner 34 footer. RJ Trotter bought it new in 1979.

    I happen to really dig this particular Altered.... The body is actually a coupe body with the top removed... kind of novel.... and not to mention totally a lethal combo...!....
