I was not up to speed with the Motorplex schedule and D 4 S/SS combo race until Sunday afternoon. We were already focused on that date for the bracket race and now we have the bonus of super stock!

The Super 10 will compete in it's first super stock race July 25th at Texas Motorplex.

This will be a busy final week completing a number of items but we will make it.

Just considering something;

Q - How do you know you are a hard core drag race team?

A - You make plans to race an unmoved under it's own power, untested combination in 98 + Texas heat. And most likely will run both the S/SS combo and the no box bracket race. This defines hard core.

A - You drive 1200 miles on a weekend to view a car and come home empty handed.

Rich,

I did just the opposite. Drove from East Texas to Atlanta Georgia and bought a car that I should not have bought. It would have been a much better decision to turn around and go home without the car.

Hard Core must have a hard head piece to the equation.

A: You grab 3 other guys,, a trailer, a pickup and drive straight through for 39 hours from Seattle to Indy to pick up your racecar,, then hot tail it back home so you can run the thing here in some good air. Did it back in 2003,,, former Shipp family Nova now out here on the west coast.

The Super 10 is race ready. We are running the S/SS combo Saturday morning at Texas Motorplex and the no box bracket race Saturday night.

Some appearance details remain but they will not affect performance.
