72tx340 - What can you tell us about that Rambler? I do not think it has the orginal engine in it  Blue Rambler has a NASTY 406 with SB2 heads.... and a huge shot of nitrous. I was working mid track, and he ran 185 on the motor, then took a couple runs to sort out the A/F ratio with the nitrous. Last run of his on Sunday (with a 200 shot!!) put him at 200.1 mph, and into the Loring 200 club. He is BluRambler on Bangshift.com. |

Glen ... Moose was right at timing traps on the big end ... we couldnt see it from the starting line. But it was out there a couple of times. Finally the Fire Department went out with the engine blasting the air horn and siren and he departed the area.
Yup-it was an interesting morning at finish-my wife FINALLY got to see a moose!  http://rides.webshots.com/video/3091579900064449971hlhFal |
