Congrats to Eddie Jr. and Bogan on their Stock wins.
Beards car looks more like a racecar with fat tires on the front.
DW what happened to the deuce???????
Chip Johnson
Chip ,at first we thought the engine locked up. I called myself checking down the list
water full in radiator
no dents in pan
pulled valve covers and everything in place

pulled plugs and all good ( did find not enough jetting )

so i just pulled the plug for the day and time had run out for 1st round..
Got home and thinking all the way to the shop i decided to to look at torque converter...

Guess what ,,,,one bolt had came out and wedged between flywheel and motor in a very hard place to see.
Got bolt out after about a 30 minutes battle.. Replaced bolt and checked over everything once again and cranked the motor and ran perfect.....
Glad we don't have to pull motor . Just was not meant to be at 1st round for some reason ...

It is fixed and ready to battle again.
It was not a total lost as we did re-set the L/SA record at a 12.21..which i am very proud of....
