I think Belanger uses the 327 250 factored 260 in the red 65 Chevy II. Valves, combustion chamber and runner CC's all larger, carb size same.

Great pics, Robert. The graphics on the Cassil car are eye-grabbing.

Awesome coverage. Had to crank it to full volume and enjoyed the RPM. I got myself into trouble when the hockey puck on the stove filled the kitchen with smoke. Great job Rob. MB.

Maurice Blendheim: hockey puck on the stove... That was funny. I get myself in trouble like that all the time. Did you have to receive special training like I had to? I was a good race to attend.

John…Impressive D/S launch, that Camaro of yours leaves like it has 500 ft. lbs. The SS/K race had a pretty good turnout, they sure have come a long ways with those cars. As for the "Special Training" sometimes you just can't take the boy out of the man. Do you have a Kirkey aluminum seat for a computer chair and a wireless mouse mounted to a steering wheel too? MB.

I really enjoyed watching the shootout,,, too bad Ed had such a rough time. It was great to meet him and yes,, a couple T-shirts came back to the NW also. I'm hoping he heals quickly and gets back out there, although he gave it a valiant try with the brace and bandages on his shifting hand. That's one neat little Chevy II he has there.

Well we ended up with 10 cars. I came up short of my goal of 16 cars. Hopefully if we do this again we can get 16 cars. I had a few guys like Sean Gaffney saying they would compete in the future if we did it. Its been well documented about our troubles. We broke alot of stuff including 2 transmissions and destroying a driveshaft. I got to take a trip to the ER as well. We did not run well. We had a few guys run very well. Stephen Belanger set the bar with a .06 I believe. The part that sucks is due to all the breakage I didn't get to see the other cars run. I was at the hospital during the shootout so I didn't see one car go down the track. Gene Bichlmeier and Tim Nicholson ran great as well. Robin had a tough time getting ahold of the track. We all know how great he can run. Tony Fillipone broke an engine Thurs and could not compete. I felt so bad for him but he was in good spirits. His son did a great job in stock so that helped. Bill Z ran good as well. Thanks to all who came including Ed Fabian, Larry Wilson, Wayne Denklau. And a by g thanks to everyone who came to my pits offering to help and encouraging words. Wayne Denklau and Jon Bowman saved me without them I wouldn't have raced.
