What can you tell us about that Rambler?


I do not think it has the orginal engine in it   :-D

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!  :-o

Toward the end of that video, it sort of looked like there might have two moose there.
