I know they have the specs. Thats why I passed this story on to see if anyony could shed some light on the truth. The story came from a very reliable and honest racer as he knows it.

Call Lang and ask him!!!!!!! a simple phone call would do

I heard of a West coast CJ going 8.90s without too much trouble.

That Mustang was probably one set up for S/S????? Roy Hill has been going some 8.70's with his ride.

For what's it's worth I was at Atco when he made that run.When we came out for the 2nd time shot Fezell wasn't in the record lanes.No circled R or circled B on the windows.I was told he made an aborted run on that 2nd run.That is kind of strange.I also heard that he was told not to back the 9.41 up but it doesn't affect me so I could really care less.What does though is that that car is on the ragged edge going down the track,whether it's driver inexperience or chassis setup I don't know.Now I'm going about 95 mph at the finish line and he's going 147 mph,
now that is a bit of a concern to me.

I never said he was one.....He was always good to me years ago when I was with IHRA but I havent had any contact with him in over 10 years. Things change and I usually get blamed for stiring up "poop".....lol. Just trying to hear the story as it happened from someone. I wouldnt want to put Bob in an odd position. He is one of the best Directors NHRA has and a true friend of stock and S/S racers. .
