Great Pics, Tom. Thanks for sharing.

Re: pics from Bristol....

Look at the stands in these pictures. Where is everybody? This was a money making event. Look at the tv coverage last night from the pro qualifying. Tons of empty seats and this is Bristol, "Thunder Valley".

Anyone know what kind of wheels are on the Minuteman car?

Realize that's for class on Friday, even when Bristol was in April, the stands weren't real full on Friday for class.

Bristol is far better in April, June and July are just miserable there. Moving Bristol to June or July from April is about as smart on NHRA's part as moving Memphis to August from October. It makes a great race miserable.

Does the altitude and hot muggy bad air mean the DP's have another tenth or 2 left in them.....lol. The blown Mustangs can make their own atmosphere for the most part.

At least 2 tenths. The 5.7 hemi only makes 40 hp less than a 6.1hemi on the dyno sheets I have saw.

I went a 9.74 last year in the fall with Irvin John's 6.1 hemi. So I'd say a 5.7 in the fall should be able to run a real low 10.0x or high 9.9x.
