Even John Force worries about where and when his Ford money is going to show up. I can tell you that deal for a fact.
John is a heck of a racer but he is also a businessman and is always worrying about the business climate vs his racing efforts. Tom V.

Well...there's only one other member on this board building a funny car, and he doesn't post anywhere near as much as I do, so it was assumed you were talking about me. As to the other member not getting his funny car done quick enough to suit you, perhaps if he weren't spending money defending himself from a frivolous lawsuit, he could have it finished by now.

Hole's getting deeper. Chit getting higher. Bench racing is easy (seems like some guys on this forum live on it). Bring your cars to Norwalk, have fun, and hold onto your time slips. Data driven information please. BS and soap boxes really have no place in reality.

Lets not get into this again please! The suit will take care of itself, We don't need a bunch of internet lawyers to figure it out. The car isn't done strickly due to a time issue. I woud rather spend time with my family than a racecar. Guess i'm getting older, wiser, and softer. So if you guys could please drop it. I'm obviously not a moderator and can't control what is said but I am asking for a little respect on this issue for both sides.

An engine with Tiger/KRE heads, IA/KRE block, bryant/crower/Asian crank, dominator carbs, BOP/Tiger/KRE manifolds, 4.40 bore, some crazy kind of stroke, and you guys call it a Pontiac motor? Billet heads?
Maybe we should call it a newly improved facsimile of a Pontiac motor on Steroids? |

Brian, you know the Hemi's .....like a 526ci KB runs a 4.310 bore, 4.50 stroke and spin to 9600rpm. I'll grant you, they have a better oiling system but its still a proven bore/stroke combo. |
