I am much more impressed with John Calverts 64 T-Bolt in A/S.

Thanks Terry. John and his guys put alot of effort into the car, and I spent alot of time trying to develop a competitive engine. We were adjusting to the heavier weight and chasing a few small things at Bowling Green. John went to Indy and I went home. We did a few things that should help but ran out of test runs, so we won't know until Wednesday. The car runs well, but no match for the blower Mustangs.Personally, I have nothing against the new cars, but they need their own place (class) to show their stuff. Eleven horsepower from now, they won't be in A/S with the 2010's, but why not just have a dedicated class for these cars with the blowers just like the AH guys. If that move was ever justified by NHRA, the CJ's should have their own play pen also. One for Stockers, and one for Super Stockers. Anyone who follows this stuff certainly knows what a work of art and genius that John Armstrong's Vette is............He made a beautiful 8.77 pass last Thursday, followed by an all-over-the-track 10-inch tire CJ set up for SS/BA that clicked off an 8.57. Ford or not, that just ain't right to class those cars with cars without a blower.
