Saturday at the Winternationals Del said that he has a family commitment on the weekend of the March Meet, the Blue Max will not be there. It should still be quite a show with Bucky Austin running a 5.76 at Pomona and the Plueger & Gyger Mustang making it's debut! And Roland Leong tuning the Bubble-up Firebird to mid-5.80's... Take a look at Mike Adam's new paint job!


Stop by Gary Messenger's nitro funny car and say hello!

Sean,

Let me know how testing goes. I think Pete Jensen is coming up to test as well with the Joker car.

Good Luck!

Re: 32 Funny Cars

car went staight on all the shake downs and sent it all the way today 1st full pass on the car went 6.65 so seems like its time to lean on it early #'s were not to far off from what we were looking for.

The track and conditions much better today

Thumbs up Re: 32 Funny Cars

Sounds good. Was the motor clean and nice after that run?

Put in a lap or two for us would you? It is cold and snowy here. The first pass since last summer looks like it will be the 1st qualifier for the MM.
