    Things have been really crazy the last couple months with work and medical issues... but we have gotten 2 more flathead racers that want to join.... so we are slowly getting a 16 car show.

    As of right now, we are pushing to have our first "meet" at Eagle Field, and also at Mooneyes Christmas Party at Irwindale.

    Unh, too much weight....It would do much better with a Ford or Jimmy on 100%.
     
  4. Yea Pete but I can just dream of sitting behind that injected blown Caddy .......man what a dream!!!

    I'll settle for the 4-71 on top of my Flattie though........

    When I was working at Pomona in the early '60s there was a flathead powered rail called, if I remember correctly, Flat Busted. Does anyone remember the car and the artwork on the cowl? Thanks
