Eagle Feild Drags Challenge

The Rum Runners of Merced, CA. has challenged the Satan's Chauffeurs of Merced, CA. to a best of 5 race at eagle field in May. The rules are..It has to be a fresh build, it has to be a small block with a single 4 barell carb, and each club can only spend 500 bucks out of pocket. All other parts have to be donated by the club members. The Rum Runners are building a 41 Chevy pick-up. The S.C. are building something slow!

 

Should be a blast!!!

This is what we are starting with

 

I love it, A Match Race!

 

Aw shit,...we better get something together now. Thanks Wally -- we like steak and Coors Light or PBR, either one long as its cold.

 

I wont make the may race with my new build but maybe the next one in sept, oct? When is the next one after may? Hope to get some build pics up soon, its gonna be a monster ha ha.

 

The 2nd event next year (Hot Rod Gathering) is Saturday Oct 9. I hope you attend both Lancer, I really enjoyed your photos. This club challenge is cool, maybe you guys could challenge more clubs to build a club car just like back in the day. Check out the Hot Rod Gathering article in the new issue of Traditional Rod and Kulture. Rocky

 

Oh I'll be at both for sure, sorry if I was not clear on that. Its just I wont be driving anything fast in May. But, I will be there with camera in hand and also stay longer this time. The first race I was only able to be there a couple of hours so I missed a lot of the cool stuff, didn't get any shots of the top fueler runnin that monster, I did hear one pass tho as we were leaving. Looking forward to the next one, and also my build for the Oct. 9 race.

 

Now we're talking! I'll be following this with a big grin... May the best car win!

 

Mock up and chop in progress

 

I like it... That's what it's all about! Good luck boyz

 

I can't wait for next years event. "Toymaker", seen the new issue of Traditional Rod & Kulture #20, very cool. Congrats on the supportive article for Eagle Field and of course I really dig the pic of me (29 Roadster) & Richy (30 truck).

Wouldn't miss Eagle Field 2010 for anything, No matter how many "mosquito" bites.

Make it for pinks lol

 

I think club pride will be enough motivation

 

Cool.
When I get back to meetings in January I'll see if any of the Trompers are up for a gauntlet toss.

 

Is this kinda like the T-birds Vs The Scorpions lol

I got my money on the SC

 

I guess I picked one hell of a time to name my Dart The Rum Runner........BTW Rocky...love "The best event you've never heard about" tag line...the guy who thought that one up is either a dumb ass or genius!!!!!

 

I don't need another reason to go, I'll be there, but this sounds like fun!

 

Oh, man now we really have to get it in gear guys! It was bad enough when it was just Wally picking on us but now this deal is out there in front of God and everybody! Jim thanks for the offer bud, to me this is the kind of thing that playing with old cars is all about! To all the guys offering parts and help to both clubs I'd like to say a big thanks! Stay tuned boys and Girls, this thing is going to get WILD!

 

Man I've been offline for a few days and all hell breaks loose. Wally your spy tricks won't work. HaHa. My 6 year old daughter comes home from school and says "Daddy today at school your friends (Wally) daughter came up to me and said that her dad told her to ask me what your race car looks like, but I just told her I haven't seen it yet!" Then I replied "Good girl! Your getting icecream tonight!"

Low Wally, just low. HAHA

 

She is a prospect. Trying to earn her Plaque

 

You guys may be the Headlining act!

 

Got room for my vision Rocky?............Hope to have it done by then.......
