When I listened to Charlie's interview on the radio, I don't believe he said he was going to run the full tour, but wanted to race maybe 5 or so races, someplace other than where all of the Hemi Shoot Outs are ran. With their Hemi cars they go to the Shoot Outs, where they can win money, not for the BBQ, and they aren't going to the other National events just to run SS/AH. He stated that there are tracks that are reasonably close to his home, where he can run several races, and not get bored with going to the same place all of time.
I think Charlie's work ethic, and skill in designing, and machining ability, it is going to take him a lot further than some people are giving him credit for. That Ford doesn't know it's a Ford, it's just an engine, and like somebody else said, he was successful in a Chevy, and I would say you can't argue about how well , he made the transition to the Hemi, so I think it is going to be really interesting to see what he does.
Somebody mentioned on Moparts, that maybe Charlie Jr. and Sr.won't be racing the Cudas anymore, but what the other SS/AH
non-BBQers better hope is that they don't come out, and run the Hemi Shoot Outs, to finance the Pro Stock effort! Just kidding!!
Good Luck Charlie!
Who will now wear the "black hat" in SS/AH, if we don't have the Wescotts?
