A lot better than I did Saturday. In the 3rd round I was ahead by .359 and still broke out by .004. I tried to dump but waited to long because he was the faster car.

The factory ods were that way, 3rd was the direct drive, and the regular 3rd gear position became od 4th. The 3-4 shift lever was mounted upside down. So the shift pattern was normal. You would think there would be more power loss going through the counter shaft, but the originals were made for...

That’s a Lakewood (Holley) bracket. Mine did the same. POS parts.

This jogs my memory, I also read his book. The most telling part was when he was younger and bumming around. (I’m paraphrasing here. ) he learned to beg/con people out of money when he wanted it. He didn’t express any shame or regret. In our modern world there doesn’t seem to be justice for...

At Kuhnle today.
