We were up against the #1 qualifier (6.58 212mph) So I through some more power in it down low and made it 1.07 seconds into the run and blew the tires off. Not making excuses for anything but I knew it was going to be our last run of the weekend and I wanted see if it would run in the teens. But on the bright side the car ran perfect all week. Just add fuel and check the valves each morning. Hell its still got the same plugs in it from September! So for us the whole week was a WIN.

Great Job!
I'm so glad you didn't have any quote "converter issues" after the weekend.

That is such a beautiful car. Hard to believe it is 3700lbs with all the trick pieces on it. My stock 69 A/C car was 3970lbs on the scales and I thought it was heavy. You are gonna have to weld up those mirrors tho so they stay in place and you can look back and see whose doors you just blew off. LOL!! In case you have to race Justin or someone like that Seriously that car must be a dream to drive it runs so smooth and straight. Jim

Thumbs up Great to meet you.

Billy,
Really enjoyed meeting you and talking about all things Pontiac. The Wife enjoyed talking with Larry while we did our thing. Car looks great and performs awesome, especially considering the weight.

Thanks again for taking time out of your day to talk for a while........

Larry S.

What kind of modifications have been done to the car to influence aerodynamic characteristics @ 190+ MPH. The side picture of it on the scales doesn't reveal much, other than it sits low. The car looks to track well so that tells me it handles good at speed. Do you have any pictures showing the front? Do you run an air dam in the front, or something else that prevents air from getting underneath the front of the car?

Congrats on the great performance at MDIR!

No modifications. Just send it and see if it sticks.

It looks like that hole in the front just sucks all the air out of the way. You don't need aerodynamics if there's no air
