Wow. Back in the 70's, I New Car Prepped a boat load of 76,77- 78 Aspen Wagons at the Dodge Dealership. Thinking of that time makes it hard visualizing them as Race Car. But a U/SA Shootout would be a good time. Might just have to look for a Aspen or Volare.

Mike Jeffrey ran the Diplomat that Curtiss Rees now has in U once. I think he went .5 under. 2 bbl Slant.

I have a 78 Volare 2dr 2bbl car that could be bought real cheap.

If anything every occurs out West I would throw my Hat into
the Ring (Although my 78 Aspen is over factored a bit).

just remembered there was this one guy who built a 70 AMC matador just for the shootout Bruce Fulper . (who has never done me wrong) is barred off this forum ... he was also after tueton to put up $100 win $50Ru

i think hes still got a matador

anyway we need a location and not any nhra race with the Automatic Help For Slugs (AHFS) in effect unless we go maybe on friday night as a seperate race ?? i have good relationship with D3 and Beech Bend / has open with class but its awful early unless 2025 ?
if there isnt already a class race we be a pain in the *** ...
vegas has a oddball divisional or open race that runs class i think ??

any ideas ??
like to try to double what 2005 paid was $500 / $200 plus some gift cards
sooo shooting for a $1000 USA payday > so skip and all you FFFFord guys start drooling ))

Love me some U/SA ….I posted $$ for the No Problem races AND will post again …I believe you have a few options Captain…Bowling Green doesn’t run class at their OPEN in May anymore so that’s out. The SportsNats in Columbus ,Ohio does run class BUT you would have to play with their AHFS rules….Earlville has an OPEN, perhaps they would be receptive to the idea BUT there are no lights and a lot of cars there,…. If Tyler Bohannon s race is longer than one day in 2024 PERHAPS he would like to host the shootout. IT would give him another 8-10 cars for his race ….And lastly, No Problem has their OPEN in November . They don’t draw that many cars so MAYBE the owner would add the U/SA chootout …That’s Cajun talk for shootout …..Anyways, you won’t be able to please everyone BUT some big names are talking about building a car for the shootout. So sorry FULPER, I said BIG names ……

Jack are you open to working with the Buckeye Stock/Super Stock or Great Lakes Stock/Super Stock? Great Lakes has a few 2 day events set up for 2024 at Mid Michigan and Ubly Dragway. Just throwing something out there. I kinda like the Open in Iowa. Its right in the center of the country for East and West guys.

I’d like to see this race happen. I’ll put up $100 tow money for any and all U/SA racers with 1000 miles or more tow (one way). I hope to be at the race, but if not, contact me after the race with your address.

I have a 2 Brl set up and specific camshaft for my
78 Aspen SE wagon = Probably not the best but
it is what is in my garage.

Paul Wong would be the best guy to ask on what is
the better combo.
