1.98 under!!! Whew doggies!!!!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

can you say added hp

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Nope, this is Indy...

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

i stand corrected

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

I can confirm Bob the Wizard has spent a lot of time, $ and testing on it since we were there two year ago. As always with Bob it’s all been clandestine and under cover at local tracks.
Congrats to both Paul and Bob
Jim

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

What combogus. Is it. ?

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

It's a v6 engine with the same HP rating as the 302 Ford V8. Just 40 fewer cubic inches.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Bob spent a lot of time testing and working on the car. It is by no means a “dime rocket”, there is a lot of effort, time and funding making the car what it is. I’m more than proud to be a part and feel very fortunate to get the chance to turn a few screws on it.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

I didn't think the big V6 came in cars. Does it use a Quadrajet?

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Great job Paul!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Caprices, Monte Carlo, Elkys , Astro vans, C10's I believe too.
TBI

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

C10 is big qjet.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Congrats guys . Great effort. Good to see Bob Shaw
still involved and working his magic. :)

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

1987 is TBI.. I didn't say it was in the books LOL

Doubt if it'll be going in anytime soon now .;-)

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

2 under, wow! any way of getting some pics on here or maybe some more info on this ride? Inquiring minds want to know. Nice accomplishment, now show it off a little please...

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Congrats to the Shaw/Wong team on the 1.98 under !

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Not surprising but it`s shocking! Nice effort you two. Let me guess, stock steel wheels and steel belted radials? Congrats on the new ride!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

I couldn't find it in the class racer guide ????

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Is this the same El Camino that Jim Parsons went number 1 with 2 years ago?? If so, very cool and good to see it up there again.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

There's a good picture of the car on Competition Plus:

Way to go Paul and Bob.

Bob, Miss Donna says HI. She remembers the crazy fun we had at the U/SA shoot out in Belle Rose.

Good luck guys.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Looks awesome guys!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Look under "Monte Carlo."

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

http://www.classracerinfo.com/CGPage...=Monte%20Carlo


It held the national record for two years..Almost that fast
Just sayin'

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Thanks, never thought of that for El Caminos

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Most people don't.. Bob does.. Billy , and Mark..
God bless these guys that search the guide.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Congrats Paul and Bob!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Congrats Mr Wong and Mr Shaw

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Welcome two '' The Club ''

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Congrats to Paul and Bob!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Thanks to all of you for the congratulations and nice comments. Paul worked his magic on it. I have never gone that quick.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

You are truly the Wizard, and very humble. For you youngsters out there ,Bob Shaw won the Sportsnationals in the mid 70’s with a CORVAIR named HALF FAST.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Bob has more#1 qualifiers than anyone in stock ... quiet guy but if he’s there it’s a good chance he will be on top of the sheet ... damn shame it broke a starter on line round one 😞

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Aw rats. Man I know that pain. Four cars from the starting line at Pomona on a Sunday afternoon the snap ring popped of the starter gear and the gear got spit about fifty feet behind me. Sinking feeling. Congrats on a killer combo tho'.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Who could forget.. Z stick corvair. I think the car ran about
a 20 second quarter. Think it is back east still.Looking down
the qualifying list I am sure Bob is responsible for many cars
and or the combination.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Smart racing, great car, congrats!

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Bob Shaw you are the man! Of that there can be no doubt. It was always enjoyable (painfully) when racing you in the old days! Congratulations to you and Paul.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Just remember...Two Wongs dont make it right....

Great Job Paul...and now get back to Vegas.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

With the combo of Wong and Shaw how can they not be number 1. A ton of effort in that combination. Way to go guys - Congrats.

Re: Wong/Shaw
 

Way to go Paul and Bob! I hope to talk to both of you for some assistance on my combo, because although I feel I'm on the cusp of running 14's next year with my 173V6 at Pomona, I think you two could offer me some good ideals or parts (read headers), that'll get my car quick enough to make the tow to Indy worthwhile, in these next two years?
