Kathy and I will be headed to El Mirage with "Jake" Friday evening after I get off work. This is the last meet of the year so it will be two days, if I'm fortunate I will get four runs in. I believe I have found a good tune on the truck and will be shooting for the 150 mark. Y-Blocks Forever!

Best of luck at el Mirage this weekend
hope the conditions are good
my dad raced there before the war with the Road Runners ....
If you happen to see the Jack Rodger's team w/ Steve Strupp ( 200mph Camaro ) please say hey. They are a big help to us on the la Carrera Panamericana every year .

A good time was had by all! Course was a bit rough though, could not manage better than 137.9. We'll be back next year and with a lot of rain this winter and not drying out too quick we may have a good course to run on in May.
Here's our best pass. You can hear the wheel spin.

Great video and a nice run. Sounded like the rough track was bouncing the throttle some. But you are creeping up on it. If LSR's were easy we would all have one. Its not often that a new vehicle breaks a record first time out. Keep on keeping on! Chuck

The truck sounds really great, if you get it hooked up it should go fast!
On another note, is the 30 sedan going to have a trailer hitch to tow the FED to the car shows?
Can you use it as a tow car at Eagle Field? Maybe your wife could race it!

Glad to see the pass. From my 30+ years of running up there if your not in the top 20 to run that's about as good as it gets. Having about 700+ HP you will quickly understand what a gas peddle can do. Also having Dave Davidson's 250 mph+ 6400 pound roadster digging trenches for you to drive thru is also tough.....Good Luck next year..............

Yes, to all that.
