FFFFlatten them FFFFFords tires in the lanes. Cut a great light and run like you never ran before. Even with no air in them thar tires they still run real fast. Thanks NHRA for your penmanship. You do that Jack, and I'll cash in on that 50/1.

Them FFFords better hope that Shaw's Caddy doesn't show up.

Ron Ortiz
U/SA I could show up with NO2.

Even odds on the white Mustang

Re: anyone handicapping the U/SA field ???
 
Will the Maverick and Mustang be rated the same H/P? It is impossible to keep up with the H/P rating on all the different years and combos! If you both are rated the same it should be a fun race!

Re: anyone handicapping the U/SA field ???
 
I don't know, Captain. You seem to hang tough with the FFFFords pretty well. Don't sell yourself short!

Until someone outruns him, Gary Summers is Top Dog.....I am very excited that BJ will be at Indy, her team isn't towing 1800 miles to settle for R/U...I forgot, who won U/SA at the Sports .??

Shaw's Caddy now owned by Skip Lisell is getting a much needed "refresh". He's licking his chops for the next national open.

Wondered where the Caddy was at. What's Bob have up his sleeve?

I predict the U/SA winner will not be a Ford.

I have no idea what Bob's talking about, but I've learned to never doubt anything he says.

I'm still going with a white Mustang...

Randy, ol' buddy have you ever Known me to be wrong? I know it's looking grim for Jack but pay close attention when they run U/SA class. There will be a couple surprises.

Rooting for the Maverick.

My guess would be That Bob Knows something about the 85 Caprice

RobbieRacer 08-31-2017 12:04 PM

Re: anyone handicapping the U/SA field ???
 
Is BJ running a Mustang? Not The Maverick?

Mark Yacavone 08-31-2017 12:46 PM

Re: anyone handicapping the U/SA field ???
 
Okay, 4000 mile relay,
BJ beats Seaburg
Capt. Jack over Summers (driver error)
BJ races Jack, soon.
Indeed No. 1, as far as I can tell.
Congrats to Mike and BJ
Many, many hours work to get this far.

Well, so much for my pick.....looks like something happened to Gary during the run....

Ron Ortiz 08-31-2017 01:35 PM

Re: anyone handicapping the U/SA field ???
 
It appears that The Captain has a curse on Summers, two years in a row now. As for Bob Shaw's prediction, well, the Mercury is gone and only a FFFord and a Kingswood remain. If Jack wins, then Bob is right. If that is the case, maybe the main stream media will cry out for an investigation of Bob.

INDY, you just gotta love it. Go fast or go home.

Yessir! Great final. Nothing to be ashamed of. NHRA MADE A MISTAKE. Hopefully these outer limit's cars will get refactored. And as with anyone I sponsor, my deal is if you make it to the final, and show a picture of the final, you get $100 clams. Win or lose. Envelope addressed already. Ya did good Jack. Congrats.

I'm glad that NHRA took the AHFS off this weekend. A lot of people wanted to know how things would shake out. Now we know.

BIG Congratulations to BJ and Mike Graham! U/SA INDY CHAMP

C'mon NHRA. Level the playing field. Let the Kingswood use a Turbonique.

Greg, BJ and Mike's record has been 12.94 for about a year and a half.

Ron Ortiz 09-01-2017 12:52 AM

Re: anyone handicapping the U/SA field ???
 
Lest we not forget Bob Shaw's Caddy at Belle Rose in the CIC race. Ask Charley Bob about that 12.80's run I believe.

BJ and Mike,
You both did a great job and deserve the class win and #1 qualifying spot. All of your friends are extremely proud of you. Good luck as you go for the eliminator Wally.

Raul
