Yes Tom, I lost oil pressure at Topeka on day 2 of Drag Week after making a pass and had to withdraw. Not trying to show an apples to apples comparison with the other guys. Just reiterating that I put on a few street miles last year and track passes and the pistons were not all scuffed up from the poor Rod/stroke ratio(my crank is 4.75 instead of the 4.5 making it worse)as some on here have alluded to. This same motor is back together and shooting to make a go of it again this year after some oil system upgrades with the help of Mark Luhn.
