Unh, fellows -- don't forget that there's a trophy-making business that's a member of the ECTA.  If you want the trophy customized -- you tell me what you want and you'll get it done.

But -- I don't think that Nancy and I will be at the inaugural Wilmington event, much as we'd like to be.  We've been invited to attend the GasUp at the Mendenhall Museum in Buellton, CA, that same weekend.  We'll be receiving some honors - and want to be there in person for the ceremony.

But whether we attend Wilmington or not -- we can still make trophies for you.  Charles, have I got a good photo of you and the Stude?  If not -- send one to me (email, please).  A good photo, not a drawing, although I guess the latter would be okay.  I'd rather have the car and you in a photo, though.  You'll find out why - sooner or later.

Yup, I did -- and thought that I'd give you the opportunity to supply one of your own.  Don't fear - - I'll get something to you soon (-er or later).

Jon, in Skandia, Michigan, where it's dang near 30 degrees F. out there right now.  Weird warm weather. . . :-(

  :cheers:
You have only seen the shifts that  I have allowed to be seen....Remember I was driving 9 second gear jammer drag cars before you where born !!!  LOL  :cheers: (no air shifters or clutchless modern transmissions either)

Trust me...my Ohio shifts will not be lazy...Like I told you two,,, the cars motor to motor "should" be close,,, so yes I know the margin of victory will boil down to the best launch and the best shifts,,, like I said 4 pages ago,

,So Mike,, I agree with your generalazation about shifts,,, But I disagree with what you think my "Race Shifts" will be,,,

It's going to be fun,,

I will bring the towel for you or would you rather have a bib for that spilt chocolate milk you are making ??   :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :cheers:

Great idea Charles!  and I like the Stan Back class - drive to ohio and then drive it home!

That's my kind of umm . . . . racing!

LSR Mike,

I know the Time Bomb crew has a NEW and Awesome C motor program planned for Ohio... So we feel it should be
a good Challenge...

The Challenge shall push each of the teams to a higher level,,, but it has to be single carb N/A on gas,,, no power adders..
that is where I think I have a "slight advantage".. I think I will just stick with my old school stuff,,I am not going to show up with any Fancy SB2 or better Dry sump stuff,,, just an old fashioned wet sump SBC for me..
