I'll see what I can find out.

Hey, if you have access, I have some question, you may be able to find answers to. Or, you may know some of the answers yourself.
(1) On John's Mission Garage site, there are pics & a video of a girl, driving a '74 T/A, on the track. Seemed to be her 1st passes, maybe. Anyhow, they seemed to indicate that the car was a Stocker on the Clegg racing team. Never heard anything else about her or the car. Would love to know all the details there.

(2) There is another pic of what appears to be the same car. It says the car was built by Forest Piedolla & Dan Reeves, and riven by Hunter Pierdolla. I know that Hunter has driven the car in some div 4 races, in recent years. So, is this the same car the girl in the video drove ?
At this race, Hunter was .991 under.

(3) Right beside the pic of the car, there is a pic of an engine which has SD455 on the scoop, which is supposed to be the engine in that car. The car runs H/SA. So, does that car run an SD455 engine ?

(4) John has been long associated with the SD455 engine. Would be very interesting to know how many sets of SD455 heads he's had, and how many he still has today.
