charliemccraney (10/24/2010) Is that still with the "backup" engine?Yes! I think with the 322ci engine it would have reved a bit higher and had a higher top speed even with the 4.33s. Next spring I will have it back in with a set of 4.11s and we will see how he runs. I wish there was time to practice and keep fresh over the winter months, I will feel like I'm starting over when spring comes. Oh well, I still think I will do better the next time out. jepito, it weighs in at just over 1400lbs. Most of it is engine and trans., I love the Y-Block but it is a bit heavy.

Hollow Head (10/24/2010)
Wow! Good work again Tim. Did you mark your pants at that first lift? There is more of a chance of that when I watch the video, didn't even think about it when it happened. Although my adrenaline level was very high when I came to a stop. I can tell you that I like what is going on in my head the whole time I'm out there. This is some fun s#!+!!! bla bla bla

Aussie Bill, we are all allright but we are now definetely waiting for the snow to come . When you there go towards summer, we here prepare ourselves for the winter. All the projects we have are at stand still. I quess the rush at last spring took the best out of us and now when we have half the year to go for the summer, we have no rush at all. Brains are working and we are collecting some more cash to do something neat. I spent my moneys to my two sons MX bikes and I'm still recovering from that . Well, we have had some good moments during autum at the motocross track and I think both boys will be even crazier drivers that I have ever been . I definetely have had to tell them to slow down some times... Aatu, 7 years, flies... Old Aprilia 50cc Newer Suzuki RM 65cc Roope, 4 years, flies too... Old Yamaha PW 50cc Newer TM racing 50cc

Great, thanks for sharing the other side of your lifestyle, nothing better than watching kids grow up, hope next shots are them driving the hollowhead machine.

Bill, it's good that we have the steering wheel on the left side... Otherwise he'd maybe gone already http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQ5NgRi0Cec
