NMCA - Norwalk - Testing
 

For some who may not know, The NMCA All-American Nationals at the Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk is having the 50th Cobra Jet reunion along with The Factory Super Cars, (same as the NHRA Factory Stock Showdown) and Stock and Super Stock this week. The place is packed and it looks to be a great race.

I was told there are close to a 170 Cobra Jets here, old and new. Over 70 of them are show cars and the rest are race cars. There are over 20 original 68 Cobra Jet race cars here as well.

My old race car showed up, first photo. Jim Morgan purchased it a few years ago and decided to bring to the 50th Cobra Jet reunion, it was nice to see it again.

2nd photo is Chris Holbrook's new ride, 2016 Cobra Jet. Super Cars were here testing getting ready for there Sunday show and Indy. The best run today was by Turk, I believe an 8.08.

Last photo was Gary Richard's time slip from his 69 B/SA Camaro. The DA was about 2600ft today. He was testing getting ready for Indy. I will have more photos for you Ford guys from the Cobra Jet reunion tomorrow.

Where did you get that time slip some one in Gary’s camp is getting fired tonight or maybe a beating

uh oh, was I not supposed to post it. It was on your bench, I was helping myself to a snack in the trailer like I always do when visiting you guys and saw the time slip. After all, you left it out and I am a so called reporter, just doing my job.

I hate to see you guys let someone go because of me.

Well you know how roomers are: we heard Gary went a 9.86 in B/SA. Oh well maybe next year...........

I'm no Stock insider, but I was surprised to see that a quick B-car was only 1.42 to 60'.

My 10.30 bracket car does that with a 1.80 glide and 4.30 rear gear.

Back tires.

Hey all, I could not get info and photos like I wanted to. I have issues with my car and I'm trying to get it fix. I did get one shot of what looks like a division 7 race. Its nice to see the west coast guys out here. No Factory Showdown cars broke 7 seconds today in qualifying, maybe tomorrow.

I will post some photos between now and Indy. Evan Smith is here covering this race and he has some great shots that I can post for everyone. I will be at Indy covering the race even If I can not get my car fixed. I have media credentials and will cover the race.
