Congratulations Billy.
 
Congratulations Bill on #1 qualifyer.This post will probably embarrass the ***** but I'll do it anyway.Billy took a engine combo that people said was good s a door wedge and over the past few years with it in Don Himes car has snuck up on it slow but sure.And he did it without throwing big $$$$ at it.Now that he's made a dime rocket out of it I guess I'm going to have to tap Tom Goldman's ability to get my scrap pile to try and catch him.
Bill is the real deal old school master of squeezing the most from the least.Congratulations old man.

Aw shucks, thanks guys. It just felt good to be able to prove that the "Little Guys" can still sneak one in on the CJs and DPs.

Congrats Billy, aka 'The Wizard of Odd' or 'The Oddfather'. And I say that with all respect to Mr Nees and is in reference to his choice in Stockers, of which I have had the pleasure of driving two of his cars.

Re: Congratulations Billy.
