Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Yeah , I here that thing is a rocketship on the big end. If he hooks it at Indy, lookout!

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Does he in fact have the low horsepower 454 in their Sunfire?

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Yes.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

You guys better get your money right.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

It looks like another GT/AA just entered Robert Cruzen from Oklahoma ,another strong runner

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

LET THE BATTLE BEGIN in GT/AA >>> I will post the qualifying tomorrow ,who will hook up will it be the high torque 400s or the high winding light cranks 350s or the low Hp factor big blocks ??? Who knows . There are all diff engine combinations . the BS stops tomorrow >

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Damn right the BS stops now, can't wait to see how it shakes out. I hope everyone gets down some good clean passes so we can see who is the favorite. We will see who is sandbagging this afternoon.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Is the Challenger anywhere on the premises or was the entry list just shooting smoke?

If this was smoke, I'm highly disappointed

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

I don't think the challenger is in the classification guide yet.
I could be wrong.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Qualifying after two rounds of time trials: I suspect This order will change afer tomorrows third runs.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

I thought for sure there would be an 8.99 today when I checked online.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

8.99 at indy? Atco maybe

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

I dont think you will see a 8.99 at INDY, unless some good air comes through, unless a certain FORD shows up.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

He ran quicker at Memphis, 10.33. Hope he can pick it up some.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

I didn't see Shaun's name on the entry list

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Wonder what's the deal with Grossi's? Blowing the tires off? Certainly made some big dyno numbers.

'Course, we don't race dynos.

So far NHRA.com doesn't show any Super Stock qualifying today.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Wow! Read about Sean Cour's incidents yesterday in his Cobalt at the NHRA website, Kevin McKenna's blog. Ouch!

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Keep your eye on the "dark" horse today.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Wow!!!!!!!!!! Some major upsets in GT/AA, Fogle, Grossi, and Richard are gone. I would have never imagined that. Right now it looks as if the 429 Ford and the LS1 are on a collision course. I really happy to see that 429 is doing some damage, hopefully he can bring home that class trophy and maybe double up.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

i think the ford is gone,it will be Bo and Kadar in the final...

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

And Bo goes red in the final....

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Good to see Tibor winn. Very nice young man. Camron ain't bad either. Congrats guys!

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Congrats....Congrats...Congrats to Tibor!!!!

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Nice job fellas , now go win the Big One . Hey Cameron , maybe the win will get you an excemption so you can start posting here again ..LOL.

You wanna trade that Whirlpool Side by Side ice & water refrigerator for a real nice mag case center section that I have absolutely no use for ??
Mike

** kudos to Don Kennedy for getting some interest going in this shoot-out by way of this thread .

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

On another note , does Bo's 9.229 in round 2 of class make him the Quickest GT/AA on the grounds ?

Mike

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

A” HUGE WAY TO GO” Tibor Kadar and Camaron Kallas two good friends of mine for a well deserved win in GT/AA . They were not the quicksets or the fastest but they were the last one standing for the victory

That Cameron Kallas knows how to make a new combination, new car , new engine, new Hauler for him run very decent, to spend that money and of course Tibor Kadar a well know "Pontiac" racer who just happens to put those fast Chevy’s motors together for Gary Hetler in Sunny Arizona.

“Now the party will begin”

A huge thanks to Lynn and Stacy McCarty who donated Whirlpool Side by Side Ice and water fridge Plus a thanks to Moser Axle set and bearing package ,a $100 coupon from Crane Cams and a R2C Performance Products Competition, State of the Art 14 round air filter ,will be at Stacy McCarty's Pit ,for the Winner of GT/AA …

(As a side note Tibor and Bo are scheduled for tear down) .

There will be a party at Stacy’s pit on Saturday for all the GT/AA racers and friends to pick up the Prizes. I will let all know where they are or just look for them

A Minor “way to go to” Stacy and Lynn McCarty who how has the fastest and quickest Super Stock Pontiac in the land @ 9:52 et at 142.37 mph with a real Pontiac engine with only the third run with this combination ..

Wow how much fun did everyone have with these Post with over ,25,000 hits thanks to all who have posted on here in a” class” way for everyone to enjoy

Prognostications aside, congratulations to Tibor Kadar and Cameron Kallas.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Cool blog Kevin. We are having a party, Free Food, and giving out the awards to Tibor and Cameron on SAT night at the McCarty trailer. Free Food! Congrats to Tibor and Cameron for an outstanding performance. Free Food! As DK said, a coupon for $100 from Crane Cams, Axle package and bearing package from Moser Engineering, a High Performance Air cleaner from Ed Sroka @ R2C Performance, and of course the Side By Side Refrigerator from DYA and BrandSourceOutlet.com in an effort to promote purchases from racers to support taking disabled kids to a Drag Race. Wont you come by and show your support to the winners of the GTAA shootout and Bob's kids?

We are trying to relocate the trailer to a more favorable spot today. My cell phone is 317-504-4410 if you need to find us. Party time is about 6PM or whenever you get hungry come on down.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Thank you to the McCarty's and all involved that put the extras together for this race. It was a pleasure to put faces to familiar names. I hope this class can grow as it looks like it will.
Congrats to Cameron and Tibor.

Colin

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Colin,


Glad to see you do so well in the GT/AA class run off's. Keep those Ford's in the fight.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Ditto to what Bo said. It was about the coolest run off in the history of Brand Rivalry and Super Stock. All the cars were killer. I wish there was a Mopar in there. Surely one of those fast 440's can make it into a GTAA car? How about an Olds with the Edelbrock head replacement?

Congrats to Cameron and Tibor. We will be shipping out the refrigerator to him soon. It is a way cool piece with ice bucket on the door, crushed ice, all electronic. The axles are his choice complete axle package including bearing package from Moser, Air Cleaner from R2C performance, and $100 coupon from Crane.

Colin it was nice to meet you guys. It is way cool to see a hypo Ford motor in there. That is an awesome combo.

Re: GT/AA Class War At Indy
 

Gotta be one of the coolest classes ever!
