As always Thanks for watching/reading us !!

Hi gang, we ran in Quick-16 last night, it was a good turnout, with a 'full field' as 17 cars showed up for a 16 car field, we qualified 3rd w/ a 5.75 @ 124 MPH !! First round: did a wheelstand off the line and came down near the wall, got back after it, but the dew had settled and the car was sashaying all the way down thru there, and I used the chute to straighten it out, plus I cut a late light Handicap start on a Pro-Tree definitely takes some practice We had fun, and as always, had Ron Evans on the phone after each pass, making sure we didn't melt anything, we tried the M-5 Fuel for the first time (2% Nitro) smells nice out of the pipes, but didn't pick up any MPH

Results:
Qual #1 5.75 @ 124 MPH
Qual #2 5.75 @ 123 MPH
Rd One 6.21 @ 91 MPH dragging the laundry

Racing Dec 19th Quick-16

We are racing in Quick-16 at Lakeland Motorsports Park on Dec 19th 2009

PRI !!

Troy and I had a blast at the PRI show in Orlando !! We went there with a purpose: to meet face to face with the owners of Arias Pistons, and R & R Connecting Rods, to trade ad space on our car for parts, that would complete the A/Fuel engine, for next year with the AHRA. Mission accomplished !! Watch for us in Nostalgia Funny Car next year, Big Block Chevy on Nitro, it doesn't get much better than that !! Thanks for reading us, BackMotor Mike

New body ordered !!

Just got off the phone with Pat Scherr of 'Scherr Enterprises' they are building the body for us !! This will be a 1969 Corvair and be VRA/GG/CHRR legal !! As our actual body goes thru production/assembly, there will be progress reports w/ pictures !!

Chassis now certified !!

Our chassis is now NHRA certified for 3 years !!
The new A/Fuel engine is under construction, and will run it in 2010 !!

Getting the driver (me) licensed is next on the list, we will begin that process in January, to be followed shortly by Troy obtaining his license also. We are starting to get offers to come and run at some other tracks, we do plan to venture out next year !!
