These are some of the wheelstands from this week-end. Forgive me if you see some of the same ones Patsy posted. I gave her my files on Friday from Thursday.

Sorry, I missed the big one, which is probably the one on ESPN, but I have some from the other runs on my computer at home I'll try and put on here.

We were there to film an episode of Top Gear

Perhaps someday you can tell me how to hook up so well as to stand a V-10 Challenger (that's 400 lbs nose heavy) on the bumper with a 9" tire. I guarantee you I can't do it.

He must be good. I've heard that before. I paid 25+ to put big tires on mine. Not much change in et or 60'. I think my best 60' is 1.33, not very good. And that's with 14.5 x 33's.

We had 1.29 + 1.30 clocking with the rear tires in 60 feet -- not sure what that is if we use the fronts like normal -- We have had 1.25s (not bragging - no need - winning is better than fantastic 60 foots)

Come down to the Cajun Nationals and you will be able to see first hand! :D We have just about flipped one over but luckily the parachute was my wheelie bar.

I think the two speed transmission helps ours but Joseph would know more about that than me

Those guys have worked very hard and tried many many things - we are pretty limited with our testing

I would like to come down sometime to meet your family. Seems like we have a lot in common. We love Mopars.

If any of your clan is ever in Stuttgart, Arkansas stop by.
