If you can't see my vote, it could be due to a hanging chad.

Regardless of what combo Fulton shows up with I wish him the best and hope it works out for him eheaded or CV-1.He has shown some patients that I sure as heck don't have.
And ,gulp,I hope Lil Jack gets his new combo sorted out and does hit his 7.99 at Norwalk.

If Jack only goes 7.99 he'll get laughed right out of the yard.

That's not even his personal best. I guarantee you if Jack runs a .99, he'll be pissed.

Jack is staying tight lipped on expectations. He like me probably learned long ago that my feet don't fit to well in my mouth. That being said, I would bet anything that Jack will be broken hearted with a 7.99. Unless the track is wet! lol

I got nothing to lose here. We'll be trying to make it down the track with those junk CV-1 heads that don't make any power. You know - the ports are shaped all wrong, the valve placement is all wrong, the valve angles are all wrong, the exhaust port sucks, they don't respond to normal porting upgrades because the ports are so poorly designed, and as we all know, they burn up pistons! Did I miss anything?
If one were to follow the conventional wisdom from the Plumbers Brain Trust of Gach and Jack, I should order several extra sets of pistons, so I don't run out before Norwalk. On the other hand, after all the CV-1 bashing Jack has done (even in unrelated threads), he better hope and pray that his new billet "Gaby-What" heads exceed any and all expectations. Because if they don't, payback is gonna be a biotch! So is Gaby actually doing the port work himself? Or did he farm the work out to Curtis Boggs or someone else? LOL Dick Fulton |

Mike... you might want to rethink that!
Telling us he will "Skull drag all of them", (post 333 2014predictions thread) when he knows Dick has gone 7.7's a few years back isn't raising expectations??? Thats tight lipped??? He made an unconditional statement right there. He wrote it! Unless it conveniently disappears, he is stuck with the consequences of such a bold statement. I wish him well... hope the new heads give him what he needs to accomplish the task... "Skull Dragger" TTFMF... Regardless, Dick has already been .2+ quicker than Jacks best ever in east coast air ttfmf. Dick didnt have the primo air to boost his numbers. I dont think Dick is building a slower combo. |
