    Just wanted to drop a line for BigRic and Co. I didn't get a chance to get over and talk with ya Sat.
    Your gasser is top notch. The craftsmanship is really good stuff. I am looking forward to seeing it completed.
    Good work boys.............
     
  2. Yep, that Gasser has it "goin on"! Can't wait to see that ass-end squat and scoot down the track.

    They've been pretty busy on it for the past few weeks and months, and it showed. It's going to be awesome.

    Root, the motor was just for mock up...they've still got to get the real short block together. This is a club project, so they're still looking for sponsorship to get the machinework going. It's going to be pricy $$$$.

    Here's a copy of the concept drawing I did for Ric a couple years ago. I'm amazed at how close it actually looked to this already.

    Thanks alot guys! A lot of guys in our club have really worked hard on this thing. Special thanks to Lurch (Kontinental) also. We hope to have it running for next years drags. there is a lot of big $$$ items ahead of us, motor, trans, and rear end.

    Root, the fly sounded great!
    Reggie, your place is AWESOME!

    Thanks again guys!

  11. Yeah the Headhunter has came along way! It was just a frame on a jig last Dec. when I saw it. You guys are making good progress and it looks mean. Like everyone else I too can't wait to see it scream down the track.

    Thanks for the feedback. We've been bustin' ass on this thing. When we woke up to rain on Saturday, I think we were more bummed that we might not get to show off the '55 then we were about maybe not racing. Glad that the weather cleared out, had a great time as always.
