Very very nice. It's hot here, high temp in the low 90's with 50ish% humidity. Keep rockin Dwight and John!

John must be running his new Bullet. Great performance for its maiden race.

I had a freeze plug pop out of my drivers side head on the return road after my first round win and could not get it repaired in time for second round. D-white had a trans brake button issue and went out in the second round. I believe d-white is still holding the points lead w 2 races to go.

we will get it. new motor has been as fast on the 38 jet, as the old motor has on a 44
the old motor picked up 12 mph and 5.5 tenths when we went from the 38 to a 44 so we will see

Bummer on the issues but it sounds like D-white is rocking and John is off to a great start. Ray is has picked up a ton over the old engine.

It's going to get good. Good deal guys.

You are running a AP block right. They come with screw in freeze plugs. ?
