Jeremy,
Did they change anything?????

Chirs Holbrook is the former IHRA Pro Stock Champ. I would think that he knows something about building a motor and operating a dyno. The cars come with a C4 done by Joel's. What more does one need? Good job Chris!

Yes Holbrook Racing Engines built the Super Stock Engine.It is totaly a differant engine. If all of you know so much come over with some cash and I will show you the ported heads and intake and the .800 plus cam lift at the rocker.

Thanks, Chris Holbrook

Still another bogus hp rating.

I saw some new Mustangs at the dealership when leaving town this morning. I'm going there Monday to see if they have any like Holbrook's.

Sorry folks for the long delay between updates. Been catching up with friends have not seen in a while.

Stock is first out, 8:45 first round. Not sure about the rest, but I think SST is next and then SS for first round.

The weather is supposed to be the same for first round, getting the right dial in should not be a problem. Traction was very good too, and I expect the same for tomorrow.

Today was a long day with the water coming up. Not sure why we have this issue every year here, but it is a major problem.

The pros got all their runs in today, comp did not run. Tomorrow will be hectic. It will be interesting to see how much of the sportsman racing they can get done.

Below are some pictures of the crowed, as you can see this place fills up pretty fast. These shots are during the down time we had because of the water problems.

I see it was Comp's turn to take it in the shorts. The didn't even get to make 1 run. What a croc of &*(^.
