    Within 2 thou or less, please explain cause that is not what I see. How did you race and win without a dial time ? Heads up?

    Doesnt matter though cause you won 6 of 7 :thumbs2:

    Ahhh... no need to PAY ME... just make me the official photographer of NAMCC again... once I got the photographer's pass to go into the burnout box and shoot - well, when they called our class to line up and pre-grid that white streak you saw was me runnin' past you to get there and film before I missed any action.

    Next year I will have two batteries.
    Next year I will lay on the wall until someone yells at me.
    Next year I will have a face mask so I don't get burnt rubber sprayed in my teeth.

    Can't wait till next year... :thumbs2:

    Mike, because we were racing street /ford ,the tower was keeping track of our times as a dialin and awarding wins and loses based on our times as if we were bracket raceing . Everyone else at the event was racing for money and trophies ,we were not . we were racing amongst ourselves for our clubs own trophys.

    Was that the white mid-80's Fairlane?... it was a pretty quiet car but it absolutely SCREAMED down the track.... so I thought it was one of those outlaw cars.

    Yes that was my only loss, he was pushing 700hp with the turbo. No ,i think he was street/ford but it was a small block ford with a turbo ,he ran 10.50s all day long.

    It'll be a kick in the pants Matt! It's time for the next generation of champion to take over. Some of us older, worn out, overly emotional warriors are starting to slowly fade away....

    I wish we had thes kind of Mav events at places close to us Texas guys. I really wish I had the money and time to put one together, because every single member I have met or delt with has been a real stand up person. I LOVE this site and the people on it. Jimmie, great job on the meet, I wish I had the funds to be there.

    I was so close to making this. On Friday I actually thought I would be there, but two different trailers fell through at the last second.

    Paul, send me a pm with your whole set up.
    Heads, Cam, converter, gears,, carb timing.
    All of it.
    Also if you were running 12psi in those tires you bought from me, that is not enough and is part of your trouble.
    Don't give up. Ever!
