Event Coverage What are YOU doing to get ready for the 2015 Meltdown Drags?

That was the original plan AJ,but apparently Jeff was more worried about the light weight/deep gear/high rpm combo of the Shaker than he admitted.
The fear of the Shaker motivated him to bring in lightweight pro drivers,pit crews/exotic dancers,and mascots.

I think Jeff is planning a full John Force-style assault on the Meltdown.

I'm not sure I've got the financial backing to compete with that kind of operation.The poor lil Ol Shaker is just going to have to do its best against the Team Okie Doker juggernaut....

ha ha ha Scott just keep talking that way.... speak softly and carry a big stick.... or would that be ummmm bump-stick
Its when you are pretty quiet that would make me worried....

 

maybe he lost the 100 lbs by taking out the mini-fridge... or was that in Johnny Rotten's car.... I forget...

 

AJ:
I've been pretty quiet lately cause I'm dead tired from this night shift and haven't been posting much.Tonight is night 86,and thankfully it's the last one for a few weeks.

Then I'll be back to my normal sarcastic,chirpy self.

Scott

 

Cool car, not sure if it is A/FX, but cool none the less.

 

It looks kinda like it's done up as a Stock Eliminator car....That's pretty neat.

I've always had a soft spot for Pontiac Stock and SuperStock cars.Catalinas,Tempests,GTOs....Those cars all made a huge impact on drag racing,and on me as a kid discovering old drag racing mags from the early 60's in an antique store back in the early 80's.

Scott you need to go back and check your post count on this one. It looks like it should be called ( Let me tell you a little story about a Drag race at the Meltdown and how it created a monster.)

 

Put this on my build thread but since I'm still grinning like a school girl, thought I'd post it up here to keep Scott working hard! 76 days now ?

 

Nice work Tony!!!!!

The car looks great,and runs like its pissed off at the world!

That thing is killer!

Scott

 

Thanks Scott - that engine works way better than I ever expected - all of Ric's low tension ring, crank scrapper tricks kicked in just wish Weisco could have given me 15:1 instead of the 11.6: it ended up with.

 

At 15:1 it would have been a menace!

 

TONY'S car was killer and at the end of the day he had a grin you couldn't wipe off with a baseball bat

 

Way to.go Tony, what kind of ET's/MPH did you get out of her on the first outing?

 

I think it was like 80 something MPH and 7.70 - stuff was all over the place though was real hard to make my brain tell everything to move fast enough. 60 Ft was 1.60 I think. Felt the wheels lift one time.

 

Scott I found a pic you will like

 

That's a gem right there,James.lol!

Scott

 

Damn Norb-

I was going to be selling those shirts on Saturday... Now there might be knock offs...

 

You can have them printed with (We Know Who) on the stone

 

That was Johnny's No-va. Jeff's car has all that diamond tuck gay bar interior & a water bed in the trunk, not to mention the moon tank is full of matching nail polish for the paint job aaaand a glove box full of spare shifters for when Erwreck teaches him how to drive.

 

You guys are wrecking a little surprise Ive had in the works for over a month now....I don't wanna say too much....!lol!

Scott

 

Ok screw it.....I might as well let the cat outta the bag here.

Miss Cassandra Hicks is not just an extremely pretty face.All of you guys have seen her winning the pinup contest etc,but she is also a really talented graphic artist.

I saw a photo a while back of Mickey Thompson painting little tombstones on the side of his Mach 1's trailer around '69,and I thought it was so cool,that I asked her if she wanted the job of whipping a few up for me!

She's been busy with a bunch of jobs booked in ahead of me,and with SEG events kicking off the season down south,and I've been busy working 86 night shifts in a row,so I haven't talked to her in a while.I will throw a picture up here once she gets some completed.

Damn....I was hoping to keep this a secret,but I don't want people thinking I stole this idea,so I had to come out and fess up....lol

Scott

 

Hey Scott, there is a nice box of "breads & jam" headed your way. Soon I'll send a box of "glistening blings" too.

 

.., you know, for "Mutha's Day".

 

Roger that.Going to pick up a box of "pants missions" the day after tomorrow.

Nothing to see here folks.Move it along.lol

 

Also Ric,don't forget to send me some "fins" to go with the "glistening blings",or I won't have anything to hang them on.

 

How cute, Scotty and Ricky have code words... Let me get my secret decoder ring..... Yep, just what I thought they were saying "we are both in trouble against the Okie Doker and the Hairy Hauler... Let's cancel going and give our spots to the guys on the waiting list"

 

The Hairy Swallower & the Lokie Poker are dead looking for a place to lay down.

 

oh yeah thats right.... Jeffs car has got the waterbed... I keep getting all them cars confused... LOL

 

How did we let this picture go...that is a "cute blanky" under your tranny their Scott...is there "My Little Pony" on the opposite side?
