    It used to run mid 14s but he put in a new Ford racing 306 crate motor while he was up there. It's the 340hp one. it has a oil leak that i need to fix then he will run it down the track before he deploys. thats the plan. he says this one has lots more power. It has a C4, 3200 stall and a 3.50 posi. also a RPM air gap and a 650 holly.

    What a great day for racing! Robbie was racing the Sprint and his wife was racing as well...I won't say what kind of car she was running but both make and model begin with a "C". :rolleyes: Unfortunately we all lost early in the program but we did manage to make a time only run together towards the end of the day and Robbie's wife got a few good pics of us both...pics coming soon!

    Oh and Tony was out there also supporting one of his buddies. Hey was this a Maverick meet??? Oh wait...it wasn't raining so I guess not.:rofl2:

    Maverick meet? Must have been a Maverick kind of day. I went with a friend to check out a Comet thats for sale. He's picking it up Monday and and may be joinging us in future events and ****. He currently has a 6 banger Comet thats heading west to california and his new car is a V8 Comet with some cool mods that needs a little finishing touches. then we both went a saw Tony at his place so I could pick up a part.

    Robbie, did you get the email from Firebird on the Sportsman rule changes for this year. Also the ET Finals will be in Bakersfield. I thought they were going to be in Vegsas again.:)

    Yep, some big changes. Looks like i will be running Pro this year. Too much money in the tranny break not to use it.
