Meet Joe and Hal Sorensen:

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Thank you for that video Bobby. Like I said before Joe and Hal let their car talk for them. Nice guys that are very knowledgeable and been doing this for several years.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

MY impression is they won't really tell you much about their car's performance and why should they?

I also noticed the Alf Weibe ladder bar suspension.:) Nothing better!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Joe just added 43 points and takes the stock lead. Very impressive, I’ve often heard his traction device referred to by another name but don’t want to be accused of spreading misinformation LOL

Congrats Joe and Hal!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Congrats Joe and Hal, keep turning those headlights on/off/on for those that say

implying that because your headlights do what they do, some type of cheating is going on.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Joe had a great view of the sky with that 20 mph head wind....WEEEEE!

Paul

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Hey Asshole, I never said he was cheating nor do I think he is, it was an observation made, get a life you deadbeat troll

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

10 Bolt rear in that car... interesting.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

So...
Way back when...
In the street racing days...
Some guys used the dimmer switch to activate the N2O...
:rolleyes:
;)

So a friend said...
:eek:


(sarcasm... before anybody gets their nickers in a bunch)

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

I bet they?ve been apart more than anyone out here!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

With the proper parts & modifications an 8.5 10 bolt is plenty strong. We ran one in a high 9 sec. semi-heavy car for many...many years. It probably frees up a few hp also.

1700/781L :)

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Congrats to Chad Langdon!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

I believe that's an 8.2 rear , like what came in those cars.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Mark the 8.2 cover will bolt right on to the 8.5.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Maybe even a few more hp! :)

1700/781L :D

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Hey Asshole, you insinuated he was and right back at you!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

tstickff called 1st Asshole for the WIN! :D

1320's 2nd Asshole for the LOSS!

1700/781L :)

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Should be another exciting weekend here at the last divisional race. If my math is anything close.Jimmy Hildalgo will need to get to the semi finals to take back the points lead. I'm sure there will be over 64 cars in stock.
Jeff Dona still can win superstock too!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

But, would he have gone faster without the sky shot?

Doesn't matter, win light came on.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Correct on what Cooter needs to do.

If he wins the delayed SS national final, Dona can't get around him.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Big Show, I don't know how much Joe had left, but based on the wheelstand
from hopping it up, and past Sorenson performances, I don't think -1.25
would be out of the question.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Sorry Mr. Dona, For my mistake. Thanks Lenny

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

At the present time, you weren't wrong!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

So...
Was that a "Hole" shot for the win!!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

I believe he's running a 8.2 in his car. The housing is noticeably different on 8.2 vrs 8.5. I'd bet everything but the housing and cover is not 8.2 parts though.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

I read all the pages to see if anybody had a clue about the headlight issue....Here's what happen to me (just as an example)
1981 f350 reg cab/8' box 2wd with extra leaves. Drove like a solid rearend until there was some weight on it.
Got home one night and went to back in the driveway, my dash lights came on....that's weird. After searching, found the rear right bulb (brake and running lights) was burned out, when the top filament burned off it fell and hung across the running light element causing the brake light power to power the running lights when I stepped on the brakes. Weird!! Never saw that before.....
A month goes by, SAME THING happened!! Figured out the socket moved 90* in the housing, rotated it so the two elements are side by side instead of one over the other, stopped the problem. Truck was rough and the rear right box mount was loose/rotted allowing the box to bounce and beat the lights out of it.

All that to say, don't think he's cheating, I'd say there is something else going on and they might not even be aware of it. Cheating??? Stop it!!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

This is too funny!
Like I said; Mission accomplished!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Tremendous season put together by these guys congratulations! Still a chance for my man Cooter and there's nobody better in my opinion. If I was a betting man and I actually am, in Vegas this weekend I would put some money on the Country puppy to overcome the lead with some good odds lol. Nevertheless both have had great seasons!

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

The index is .2 slower in Vegas. 12.05 but he was still on a great run.He was 6.799 at the 1/8th.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Ummm, what combo does Joe have in his car?

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Don?t know for sure, but they do have a 300 hp 350 as well

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Watch the video

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Billy, pretty sure Joe is running a 350 255HP.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

This is the best '69 Camaro is Stock Eliminator no matter what they plug in under the hood .They are as fast as they want to be whenever they need to be.
They deserve the Championship.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Probably the 350/300 hp.

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

It SHOULD be a 350/300 because the 350/255 can't make E. Correct me if I'm wrong but was he not running a 350/255 at the Natl. Event? Now I know that both of those guys are capable of swapping a set of heads or a motor but I think that somebody in the Tech Dept. should at least wander over and pull off a valve cover and check some casting #s. We're not only talking about a World Champ on the line here but more importantly to many Racers we're talking about combo averages.

Just an FYI NHRA, if it's a 350/300, he's got the wrong hood on the car. ;-)

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

Did you forget to take your meds? Or am I missing something? (G/SA)

Re: Joe Sorenson
 

At the Vegas Div. yesterday he is listed/qualified in E.
