    Found old photos on a disc, thought I'd share a few cool cars from 1988 Sac Raceway Govn. Cup & Night of fire

    His Buddy Randy Bursell who also had a Superstreet Wheel Standing Big Block White Duster passed last year. They raced against each othert in many final rounds. One of the toughest guy I knew back in the 60's. You could hit him 10 times to every time he hit you and you would want to quit before...

    Head Gasket Cylinder Overhang

    I would not run a gasket with ANY overhang period. I have used that gasket on a number of 440 plus 060 over the years. Edelbrock/Max Wedge/Product Factory heads and have never seen your problem. I wonder if it is an issue with the casting of the Trick Flow heads? I have never tried them.

    Hate it when I red light by .001!

    In Denver in Class Finals some years ago in a Heads Up race between two 340, we both had .01 light. My Margin of victory was .0001. I went over the scales right to the pound my minimum weight. My friend Earl in his Cuda was 5 Lbs. only over his minimum. If he had been exactly on he would have...

You can no longer change you dial in after the line that is way around the corner 10 cars back from the front of staging and around to corner with no view of track. At the National Race in the finals a few years ago from the time I did my Burnout to...

    Got close at NMCA Norwalk

    You still did a great Job. Congratulations! My strategy is different in Nostalgia racing = I try to hold 1 or 2 and just work the finish like an Eagle especially when I am chasing which you usually are. But there are many ways to skin the Cat. Our Nostalgia racing has totally disappeared out West.

    Help with decoding NHRA roll bar rules

    In the picture it is not the kicker bars that I am questioning as of course, they are not required BUT I Do not see any back bars at all behind the main loop( going behind the main loop). Without some support behind the main loop the roll bar would fail right over in my opinion. This appears...

    Help with decoding NHRA roll bar rules

    No one is stating that any Roll cage has to be certified until you run in the 9's But all cars still have to pass a tech inspection to race and that bar would not pass if the tech inspector had every looked at the NHRA Rulebook. Just trying to help you stay out of trouble! I thought you were...

    Help with decoding NHRA roll bar rules

    I do not believe that this is an example of an acceptable roll bar in any car faster than 11.50 and that is required to run a roll bar. I do not see any back braces at all in the picture.
