X 2....Stock and S/S needs more guys like him and Eric Merryfield who want to run their stuff instead of shutting off and playing stupid games. I respect guys like that. Even if the Skillman's did manage to put some HP on the combo that clearly shows it needed it. The combo will still be way quicker than anything else in the class it ends up in. So how much did it hurt or slow it down? ZIP.....ZERO.....NADA !

How was the Skillman’s weekend outstanding, Blue oval Ralph?
Ray can’t even get on the qualifying sheet because he left before the tree on one run. Ray cuts a 500 plus light in round one Ray runs the car flat out with no chance of catching Richie Mace. What if Mace would have broken out too, then he would have looked like a bigger fool. Drew dials 1.27 under, which would give him and others with that combo 4.25% HP Monday. Drew runs 1.26 for the loss giving him and others 18hp Monday. So at the end of the event one lost second round and one lost first round. Neither had a heads up and both came home with 18 more HP then they came with. I fail to see the outstanding part.

Larry, I wonder how'd you feel if Don Little went out and got stupid. Ran his car on kill at a National, and racked up some h.p. on your combo.
Soft or not, being intellectually challenged should not be congratulated!

Yes, those two situations are EXACTLY the same. Because we all know that combo is also 50 to 100 hp under rated.....

You think I don't understand it sucks when somebody adds HP to your combo? It's a crap deal no matter what.
But that is still an apples an oranges comparison, and to act like it's not is dishonest.

You should be happy to have Ray a FORD Dealer Dragracing on his own Dollar. This means alot to The Corporate People at Ford like Jim Farley, if you understand the Corporate World. Why don't you ask Brian Wolfe how important it is to Have Dealer Support like Ray"s! So Ford can continue to build these cars and not just funnel all thier Motorsports Dollars toward NASCAR. Get your car done go out whip thier ***** if you can. Just how good of a shoe were you when you first statred Drag Racing?
As far as; I fail to see the outstanding part.[/QUOTE] not many people really care about your crying all the time!! Ralph Quote:

I too now know who blue over ralph is or should I say MR LEE.
Ralph when I first started drag racing I got to run a 103 mph 1983 malibu wgn and had to pay 1/2 of my way. Comparing my racing program at the age of 18 to the skillman’s program is a not really a fair. No one gave me a $175,000 rig, $85,000 race car, a truck driver, the best tools money can buy and a blank check all at the age of 18.
