Flatcad friends,I am looking for a set of 1939 V16 Flatheads! the machinist cut too much off of ours! Can you help me find another set? uncle Bill

 

BUMMER Would special gaskets be a fix?

 

Hey Buddy if Dale is with you I bet he can fix the trailer problems with just bubble gum. Or at least he can hold the umbrella while your working on the fix. Were hoping for good runs good luck.

Or maybe it will.......

Really sucks for all the folks that spent so much time and money to get to Bonneville this year. Hope you can all make the best of it. See some of you at the HAMB drags.

 

I'm back home from Speedweek . While the cancellation was a bummer, it was great catching up with everyone.

We got the car teched, and sorted some new issues that popped up, in the Rainbow parking pot.

Next up, WOS! I hope to see everyone there!

Hey Buddy! Big bummer about Speed Week but it was good to get to talk for a few minutes. My plan was to retire the truck and come out next year with a D/ Gas Roadster but now that I didn't get to run the truck one last time maybe I'll bring both. lol Still moving ahead. See you all next time! Cheers!

 

Uppdates?? Please

Yea Buddy updates are needed for our FlatCad Fix............

 

WoS is well over now and still no word. This is not a case of "No news is good news" What happened?

 

Does anyone know what happened to the Flatcad guys? It's like they vanished off the face of the earth.....

 

Car is ready to race. There have been some talk of a few changes. Waiting, Waiting, Waiting....

Buddy has changed jobs and may not be on the net as much as he was before.

John

 

We all are still around and ready to race as much as we all wanted to race at bonneville it was a blessing in disguise for most of us as buddy dale and I have had job changes this last year and that had affected all of us however we will be at bonneville and the car is ready to race 200 mph here we come also you might want to check out the flatcad dragster thread as I am making progress and it should be ready to run this year as well at the hamb drags

Thumbs upp Randy Yes 2014 was the "change of job year". After 23 years within the same Company it was time for me too Now. New dream job, working for a well known engine manufactorer, name B&S Flathead all the way
2015 is going to be the Flathead record breaking year!!
