I am officially,a Class Racer

I would like to think everyone ,for there comments and encouragement. Thank you it means a lot to me. Kenny my min weight is 3170, my car with me in it and no ballast weighs 3200. I was thinking about running K/SA, but I would have to add about a 100lbs but I think the car would work better. It would have a lot better weight distribution. When I bought the car I took it all apart except the front end. I scraped a ton of body sealer off, and anything it did not need was left off. I can still take about 60lbs more off the front end but it would be expensive.

Wow, I know the only dum dum mine has, has been in the seat ! I'll just keep pecking at it.

On my first outing in the new Stocker, my car went 3/10 under the new index, at what everyone calls a 2/10 slow track. So that could feasibly put me 1/2 second under at other places. I was totally stoked, and fully understand your enthusiasm. My project took 6 months from start to finish, and with a few more mods and some fine tuning, hoping to get well under the index. Having a ton of fun, and can't wait to hit a divisional.

Hey Alan congrats on getting it to the track. Now maybe Ron can get the Daytona going. I should talk still have the Challenger on the rotisserre.

Alan give a couple of enthusiastic pat to Jim on the back. Nice to see your accomplishment next year you can install lightweight brakes and hubs, titanium rods and linkages on the front end.lol Seriously you're there, now work on consistency(lights and et) and you'll be able to trailer Dan Fletcher soon. lol Good-luck.

I envy you Alan. Congrats!

Damn I wanna race too! Anyone rich out there who wants to ship a car over to Sweden and help this kid out?

Alan, I know how you feel about classracing, I started this 4 years ago, after running Super Street for 12 yrs, and have enjoyed every minute of it, well except 2nd rnd Dallas. But I cant wait to get back out there and keep improving, may take a while but I will be back. Hopefully i can make a couple of races just to be their with my friends and I will look you up. Good luck

Bob
