Live from the Fall Classic

[442OLDS]

Congratulations to Matt Antrobius.He has a picture of the trophy on his facebook page,so I have to assume he won.Maybe the results will be on DRC tomorrow!

We left the track after third round, so I have no more to post regarding rounds, sorry.

[Andrew Hill]

Congrats Matt Antrobius! He beat Chris Stephenson in the final of stock. Chris beat Alan Kastle in the semis, and Matt had the bye.

In SS, I believe Scott Stillings beat Dan Olding in the final, although it may be the opposite.

Charlie, obviously I have good heads, I just don't have as good of a platform to start with as the 440 hp, or is it 412 hp, oh that's right, 325 hp mustang. Oh and in case you didn't know, I didn't get the MPH record, so I guess I'm not making as much power as the CJ, just doing a better job of getting it to the ground.

Gary Summers and Wade Owens were not there.

Some pictures from the barn:

Actually, Gary Summers was in tear down & passed with flying colors in his 85 Mustang. Wade Owens lacked very little setting a record.

There were 5 stockers who made record attempts. Myself (K/SA), Donnie (J/S), WadeO (L/SA), Andrew (D/SA) and Carey (A/SA) in Eric Merryfield car. First thing congrats to Donnie and Andrew (what a nice car) on setting the records. Now to us who missed out, WadeO ( who could have set the K/SA record easily) just did'nt have the weather conditions for L/SA. I talked with Carey and Eric Saturday night, there pistons failed dome ht. The pistons in question were the original that came with the motor from Chrysler aka std. bore. The Car is still sitting in the BARN with the Cylinder Head off waiting for Bruce to come back from the Arizona Nats to make a ruling on the pistons? Myself, after making my backup run for the record (11.67) my fuel failed. The fuel checked good on the mourning run, but not on the afternoon run. They checked the fuel three times with all reading being different?? JKeihn3954

rowdyboys31, Wade Owens car fit`s in L/SA,M/SA, N/SA, not K/SA. Tom

[rowdyboys31]

Tom, I was unaware Wade's car does'nt fix in K now. I just remember back in 2010 he was #2 qualifier at the Indy points meet in K/SA.

Congratulations!

I thought I saw an "R" on your car too, but I wasn't 100% sure so I didn't post anything. Then when I didn't see you in the barn, I was even more unsure. That's unfortunate about fuel check. How did they justify the same fuel reading different every time? That just doesn't make sense, and I hope they recognized it.

Andrew is right, only 1.20 or better count. The piston on the 5.7 was original 205 dome, which was changed to 210. I don't know how big the domes were. On ours, the extra .005 fixed the problem. And that non-mopar, non-blue oval motor needs hp. Now where have I heard that before. Congratulations on your record Andrew.
