Re: H-I-J '76 Nova re-fit.
Hello Todd and Autumn,
My name is Gary Howe and I have to tell you both you have inspired my daughter Tiffany and I to go stock eliminator racing. We were back at Indy this year and stopped by your pit spot more than once because we saw you all on the starting line and were in awe of what a nice job you did on your Nova!! Unfortunatley, we never got to meet you and your family as we didn't want to bother you in the lanes Tiffany has been wanting to drive my car for a while but after seeing your car she agreed with me that we should go this route. So we purchased an all original 1977 Nova this past weekend and have it home to begin our project. H/S 350 4 speed . As we get started, my question is what size tires did you go with on the back and what gear ratio for the 12 bolt and how much rpm do you have at the finish line at say 116 to 117 mph. My Super Stock car was the one from Gig Harbor Washington, the Blue 1955 stick car. My son said you came by and I missed you there also. Next time for sure!! Thanks Gary |

Hope everything is ok with Todd and family? He has not logged on since 11/11/19, which is unusual considering how often he was updating this thread. Hopefully just super busy at work.

Re: H-I-J '76 Nova re-fit.
Great to hear from you guys!! Sounds like you are getting a well deserved break. I decided to take a year off and do as much or as little as I felt like, it will be up in early July. I got a little tired of it all. Sounds like you guys are getting ahead, as well.

Sitting watching some rain today at our first 2020 D2 race today. Here's a video of our final time shot from yesterday.

Re: H-I-J '76 Nova re-fit.
We're home. After a 24hr rain delay the D2 crew managed to wrap everything up today around 6pm. Came home and dropped the car off in the shop, still have a few things to tinker with coming into race 2 at SGMP in a few weeks. We continuously made changes this weekend but still have a few small nagging issues. Autumn had burnout issues this weekend that didn't help us out and neither did my inability to dial the car. I keep anticipating ET changes that never come, I just need to trust the car because it's really all in all pretty good. Here are the slips from first and second rounds today (2127)
