Sorry Guys,

My plane touched down at 730pm, picked up a Moustang at Hertz and made it to the track by 9pm. Thank God for GPS.... Nice meeting Lou and Brent, I caught them just heading out. Bumped into Rich and Richy along with Mike H and his posse.... I briefly spoke with Jeff L. but did n't get a chance to get back to ya bud..give me a call, your new blower should be ready to go...we hung around for another 2 hours, did a little tuning and here I am in Simi Valley heading to T-netics in a little while.. I'll be around this afternoon and this evening with no big plans if anyone wants to hook up, email me I'm free after 5pm on saturday...sunday afternoon I'll be heading up to Fresno area to meet with another customer before heading back to Mass on monday evening..

Sorry that i didn''t get a chance to chat with you Jack.. hopefully we will have a chance to met up another time..

Congrads on the nice runs also from Brent and Bob.. Bob's car is NUTZ .. 5.40 at 117mph and hitting the brakes BIG TIME about 150 feet away from the traps.. NUTZ I SAY..

Bob wasn't able to get his licence in time for super chevy & asked me to drive it.Seems that no one else was up to the offer.We have worked hard to get it ready & it would be a shame not to run it. Even though it's chevy powerd it still is a Buick when viewed from the starting line. Should be interesting to say the least. If It will go straight & not light the tires mid track as been the case. It should run in the 7's ( gulp )

Update, Car ran only 8.30 - 168 MPH had trans problems, Bob now wants to convert to a P/Glide.

Good idea. I picked up 2/10's with the PG, and cured all traction probs with the stock 1.76 first.

Yes! that's correct except your truck doesn't weigh 3600# with driver, I just hate changing combinations till I've exhausted all possibilities.We don't have enough runs on the car to really know & thats my issue with this. Bob drives me nuts with wanting to change things all the time.
