Default Re: Allan Patterson

Between all the rain delays at the Southern Nationals, I had time to walk around and visit. I had a nice time talking to Allen Patterson. He was very friendly and eager to talk about his racing engines. This Sharp Contracting guy has some big bucks. I think he had five cars there and had Patterson engines in all of them.

The car that Bo Butner was driving blew the intake off that morning during warmup. Allen said it had happened twice to them now and they were a little mistified about what was causing it, then he quickly added that there was no nitrous involved.

Allen said he had a Chevy II SS/KA car that he went 10.19 in at Louisianna earlier this year, that's with a 283!
