Just a shout out to Jeff Colvert and his engine builder Jim Kuntz on the performance at the BG National Open. That is a quite a run.

Can't wait until you get the "little bugs" worked out, an 8 second pass is sure to follow.

Congrats Jeff

RJ

Hillbilly engineering is a wonderful thing! There is NOTHING a Hillbilly can't accomplish! A Hillbilly is much more able than a city sissy boy!

Hey thanks to everyone for all the comments, it was a blast to be able to run car out the back side for a change.Thanks to who ever at nhra had the balls to allow a no 1.2 under penalty race. We need this format for all class races am sick of running to the 1000' and letting off. Now I gotta go skin some coon for supper.

And nobody wants to watch S/SS 1000' racing either. Add my congrats to the pile. Well deserved and thanks for the FE inspiration.

And he lives/breathes FE. I remember when he built his own roller rocker arm setup before anything was commercially available. He and Jim together make a formidable team.

Hey Jeff,
You seem to have moved up the Ark. food chain from Possum to Coon!! Yum!!
I bet those country Possum and Coon have a better flavor than those raised down here in the city .
Like I had a custome tell me one time:
Your Horse Power is not the Shetland pony size.
You have Horsepower that is the Clydesdale size!!

That's cool Adger. I would like to chime in on some of this but I might be acused of bragging or something and I do like coon better than crow. So I will just continue to let the ole Cobra Jet do all the talking.
