    Looks very nice, and I hope it runs great. only thing I don't like is the fuel line over the headers, most tracks won't let you have more the 12" of rubber hose. Not trying to bust your balls just something you might check into before track says you can't run after all that work. it does look very nice and it is hard to get an engine compartment that clean. nice job.

    I am not sure that I will be talking alot of crap. My dad has an old roadster pickup and I think were gonna get it rolling for the drags. If it all works out, we'll be taking dads Riley equipped banger down the track. It's my goal, we'll see what happens. If I meet my goal, it should prove to be one of the slowest cars at the track, but dad and I will both be very happy!

    Not in the works for this year. I've been spending every spare moment on the '51 trying to get it ready for next years Round Up. My plan is to drive dad's roadster pickup out to the track and have some fun with it. The truck was built in the 60's by a friend of the family. I am anxious to see what it'll do against Mark's flathead roadster.

    I picked up a 2x4 set up and a high stall converter for the coupe but unfortunately don't have the time to do the RPU, 51 and install all the goodies.

    well my typing finger is almost heeled up since last year.
    I have met allot of people that are right around Austin and texas ,
    that I see at the races ,
    but the hamb has let me get to know who the hell they are ,
    although I still think head`s up racing is just silly !
    and it`s like watching traffic when a 11 second car races a 16 second car ?

    I here there racing Sunday.
    maybe Ill try to get some run`s in sat ?
    the best thing about the clown car post`s last year I wound up making some good friends and we had some good laugh`s !
    hell I stop buy buzzard`s house twice a week when he need`s drag racing advice ! he almost has Sunday figured out ?

    [​IMG]

    hell I even like his goofy ass dog now ?

    [​IMG]

    and to all the others I have met around town ,and from around the hamb Cheers! Casey. see you fuckers at the race`s :)

    Collin...Obviously, your no match on Saturday, but I'm a gonna smoke you on Sunday this year. I'll even tap my brakes at the end to give you a clown car salute!

    4spd... I don't mean to leave you out of the smack talking. It's just that your hunk o' junk'll be so slow it that ain't even worth talking about!:D








    (how's that for crap:) )

    You need to slow down on the pain pills. I think you may be hallucinating.

    At least your flathead shouln't have any trouble hooking up. Can you do a water burnout with that cute litte motor? You need to bring you reher morrison motor to even stand a chance!

    Is Curtis on here? Seems like he was. Has he even had the Murrell altered on a track?

    And when you say bring the "throne" back to California, you mean like an outhouse right?:)

    I'm making a few tweaks as well. Nothing major, but should be enough to get the job done.:cool:

    Here's a serious question though. Are you guys running cheaters or real slicks. I will base me decision on what ya'll and Bass are doing because I wan't to keep it as even steven as possible. I'd prefer to run cheaters because I break shit enough as it is. But I'll risk it if ya'll are bringing real tires.

    I thought you had cheaters last time? I think Bass has some M&H slicks. What about the big boy, with his nailhead?

    I have a set of ET Drags and wheels that are going on my '55. And I just put new Moser axles in. So it looks like it's on!

    Sweet!
    I just killed my Sag. trans and trying to make sure I have it back together by then. I am going to try slicks since mine ran well in Mokan.
    Cannot wait!
