belle rose - u/sa round one by the numbers

Thanks Jack,

Bob must have won the coin toss and taken the lane with the huge tail wind and left you fighting a head wind....

Looks like you made a pretty good run. How was the air? What is the quickest the wagon has been in 60 ft.?

Capt. Jack -- I must agree with you ------- getting passed twice in the same race must have really sucked . On another note -- that intake you're looking for isn't enough -- maybe you can call for a letter from GM --didn't they offer Tri-Power as a "in the trunk" towing option ? If you start now by Indy you'll be using it ! ! !

PS-- That Caddy is bad fast and I can't believe Bob Shaw built one and Billy Nees hasn't......or maybe Billys' will be out at the first points meet this year .

Jack,

Are you running the glide still?

On the pick-up with the weaker engine, with your 1/8 mph I'd run around 8.40's with low 1.7's 60 ft.

B/SA class at Indy 2002 Al Corda let me go at the tree passed me passed at 330 let off at the 1/8 ran less MPH at the 1/8, then pased me again before the 1000'.

As Al says,"the good old days"
