There were 15 stockers called to the barn. 6 Cobras, two CJ and two DP which had to pull pistons.
There was an issue with John Calverts valves, not sure how it turned out. One was measuring oversized.
The Hawk & Cook guys are a great bunch of guys. Glad I met them. I was the hired bodyguard for the day. Good luck to the team.
Oh, and one of their secrets for success.....they use GM silicone on their intake. lol.

They ARE a great group of guys and a lot of people don't see that. My dad is flying out right now. He is a great guy also. I hope you get to meet him. I sure wish I was there to enjoy the win with them. Have fun at Indy.... Sharon Cook McKinney (Eddie Cook's Daughter)
