I'll be there for sure. Look for the goon wearing a ratty green pith helmet driving the big old "school bus" yellow F1 pick up with Gilmore Oil Co. logos on the doors.

See ya'll in Palmdale!

 

I'll be there, chopped pith helmet and everything. Wayno

 

That rodz insane, Are you aloud to register cars like that in the US? In oz we have really tight rules on what can and can't be built. Down here if it's fun they either ban it or tax it

 

I'll be going one way or another. See you out their Jet Fuel. Chp almost took my car away for good.(straight pipes, no trans cover, to low.......ect. Oh yeah Paso was fun.

 

A long way from home but i'll be there, will be good to meet some more of you.
Evil if you read this i need another MF DVD as i bumped into DocFrankinstien on my way to Vegas & gave him mine, he's been busy with his new business & hadn't heard about it..........now he has!!

 

Hey Sam, How's the BFD running. What kind of times are you turning with it this year?

Isn't that a new engine in the car now?

 

I wish, I still got the bad back from camping under the stands about 14 years ago !!!! still it beat being up at the State park thing up in the hills with the 4X4 blasting around the place in the middle of the night.

 

i'll be going too. just look for the crusty 51 suburban.

 

Question for those that are going.
What time does this start and end? (first time going)
I just relized that Pomona swap is that day.
Hoping that I could make both.

 

Checkin in here, we'll be at the Picnic Sat. and hopefully racing Sunday.
The River City Roadsters will be well represented!

 

no way in HECK I'm missing this! Last year was a blast... I'm gonna be lame and pay the "show car" admission so I can park the copper truck in the pits... I plan on hopefully buying cool **** people bring to swap....

 

32 limy ...I'll bring a bunch with me...see ya there,..,

Burnt DUDe you missed out on PASO ..it ruled..


evel

 

ahh, I went last year!

MAYBE I'll go next year....

(damn straight i will!)

 

On Sun the line-up starts at dawn but gates open at 8:00. The club promises to improve on the illogical chaos that was last year, when tech-inspection was located just inside the entrance gate causing EVERYTHING to back-up. Hopefully it will be back to the old way with tech located far away. It usually ends when it gets so windy the track blows away.
Sam, I'll be looking for my free lunch.
Mitch, see you at the gas station.

 

I'll be at the picnic Saturday and I'm comin' to the strip with a helmet this year so I'll be racin' too.

It's running about the same... 10.50's.

I don't know what the elevation is... but I would ***ume the car is going to run in the 10.70's maybe '80s'. We added a radiator in the bed... a pump and a fan... AND an alternator... sooooo, all the wieght may slow us down a bit, but no more than a 10'th.

But the added benefit of getting the motor and ****** up to temp before the run... and having 14.5 volts going to the MSD instead of 12 will help us out a little.

Our plans are to pull the motor after Palmdale and then I am going to go through it all... new rods, pistons... and CAM... should run high 9's then... maybe quicker. Then comes the Enderle injection and alcohol... we'll ditch the cooling system and the alternator then... and run 9.60's... maybe quicker.

But with that comes the $200 ch***is cert... a parachute, new rear axles, and licensing from the NHRA for me and my partner Tim. Probably $1500 worth of ****.

But we're having the time of our lives! The thing has to be driven down the strip, which is fun...

See you all down there!
Sam.

 

Sam, the elevation is on the order of 2900 feet. See you there. Wayno
