Larry,
I dont think they had to much trouble with the trans but it would break valve springs every pass !!!! The Pocket Rocket also had a hand brake Cotton used on the starting line it was really something to see .

Great to see those old pictures. We sure had the cars at Brainerd. I was there almost every Saturday night. I turned a few bolts on Caheely's Cobra Jet as a kid. My dad usually had a few parts on that car. Those were the days of the "water wagons". I hauled my share of water for several of those guys. I never could get past Jim Headrick without him popping me good with the rag he kept in his back pocket! Those were the days, indeed. I'm sure being there has alot to do with why I'm still hooked on these things today.
