Thanks Rich South
 
All the SS-GT 305 engine racers should send a big "thank you" to Rich South for the HP present. Nice job and on a red light during class eliminations no less.

Awesome!

first of Fred, i dont see your name on my stats anywhere, second of all being with Rich on this trip I told him in the lanes the car would only go a 9.63 to a 9.65 on the weather station, when he red lighted the car was not hoped up or anything cause we figured Bo had things under control and we didnt want to get HP'ed. so when he red lighted knowing round one was a few hours away and we needed to get data he ran it through. We never figured it would go a 9.59. Hey we did get the Perfect Strange deal in Rd 1 going dead on.
Third, Fred, i really didnt have to answer to you. Have a good day, hope you find someone else to bad mouth next.

Hey Fred, as a wise man named Jerry Ryan once said "if your name ain't on the qualifying sheet, your opinion don't mean ****". Didn't see yours! Nice run Rich!

Ok!!! I have traveled with Rich for a few years , Rich has had many a chance to go fast and he decided not to . He as always tried to not get the motor combo hit .You do not know how hard it is to do that . Put in weight take it out adjust all the right things . So to any one who races you know what I am saying . Like what was said befor if your name was not on the ladder keep your mouth shut . JUST MY 2 CENTS :D

What difference does it make, I believe that the combo Rich runs is the only one out there to my knowledge.

I do not race SS but i think the 1980 thur 1984 305 dish piston motor new Gt hp should be 256+9=265, because it listed at 256 0n 1-1-12 for 1982 305 Gt the same motor, i do not think it matter`s in Gt on the year of motors if it the same spec`s. The Gt hp should be listed same for all 4 years. Tom

Nice run Rich, hey Nitro, just wondering did they tear down Rich?

It's good to see under rated combos get HP.

Bryan Worner 04-18-2012 09:49 AM

Re: Thanks Rich South
 
He only got 9 hp! So instead of going 1.20 under, he'll only go 1.10 under the next time! LOL. Feel good 305ers, the Mustang got 24 hp from Charlotte!

One thing Mr. Nonracer needs to know is we had very good conditions at ZMax! The DA was 300 ft during our first session and 400 ft during the second. So if he was really trying to blast that combo, he could have done it then, not when it was 2000 ft on Saturday!!

Thanks Rich!

Re: Thanks Rich South
 
Has anyone taken into account that the combo was going to get hp anyway. Even without the instant hit. So what did he effectively do? Get another 1 percent? All prior runs are now wiped clean and they start a new on that combo.
It's his car and it's up to him what he wants to do with it.
A couple of years ago I heard of someone dumping a class win so as not to get hit. To me that makes no sense at all. But it was not my car.
It is supposed to be a performance based sport. So work harder.
