"Live" from Belle Rose - Page 3

We're here!! It is a beautiful day here at No Problem! Getting ready to go up for test n tune. Lots of people here. Yes, you can enter at the gate. Have already seen a lot here that were not entered earlier. We are down in Mopar corner. The Buckners, Jerry Davis and more. If you come down, come by to see us. We are on the next to last road on the right, I think.

More later!

have fun to all at the track from all of us in Sunny Arizona where it almost never rains unless there is a race or My Son In Law Brian Van Poppel shows up to race

Do any of you Drag Pack owners or builders know if someone is building a SS/GT out of one of these cars? We did a FWD conversion but never really liked it that much. Just doing some mind racing.

Thanks Jay

Well, I had made another post about how we had gone 10.21 in A/SA, but didn't leave very good. Teuton was having shifting problems. Well I don't know what happened to that post, but I now have good news and I have bad news. Teuton went 10.50 at 127 for the good news. The bad news is we blew an engine. So now I guess we get to party all weekend!! And withdraw from Charlotte before Monday. Oh well, that's racing. He doesn't know yet what happened. He decided to have an Absolut on the rocks before he looks at it!

More later.

Oh that sucks!! Sorry to hear that. Look forward to your reports! Thank you.

Jack,
Yesterday morning, Jimmy Marshall said the barometer was better than anything he had ever seen at Atco with an altitude of -100 feet. As you know, he's been to Atco a few times.

Jim Cimarolli · 03-18-2010, 06:41 PM

Dang,,, Larry V. and Patsy, sorry to hear about the carnage.

Greg Hill · 03-18-2010, 06:55 PM

Larry, sorry to hear about your motor, although ther is an upside. Since you no longer have to worry about racing you can spend more hours drinking. Was Jeff in his new challenger or his super bee? If it was his challenger that has to be the fastest H/SA run of all time.

Bruce -- As our team garage is only 4 miles from Atco I've seen a barometer or two there -- best I've ever seen is 30.33 -- three years ago ...............I guess Phil must have BS'ed me -- shame on him .............................But yet ...........Nah - he wouldn't do that ! ! ! !

Larry & Patsy -- Sorry about your bullet............only one thing left --- Party on ...................

Jack,
Jimmy said it was better than anything he had ever seen at Atco. Not the best that Jack Matyas had ever seen. We are both reporting what we have been told by two different people who were using different gauges and possibly at different times of the day.

I just received another call from a racer at the track who says Jeff's car is supposedly in H but there is no class designation on it yet.
