And yes Westcott has won Indy the last 2 years.
Sorry, I had no idea Pancake was his real name! Sounded like a nickname to me. I think I'm gonna ditch the Schumacher deal this year and stick around for the shootout

Thank you for the compliment. We aren't coming out this year for a few reasons, mostly health-related. My Dad (Harry Holton) has been sick since last fall and is just now getting back to the shop to work on a regular basis. In addition, Bob Jenkins (Jerry's dad) was involved in a bad auto accident the day after Christmas and is still recuperating. His other son, and Jerry's business partner, is recuperating from kidney cancer so Jerry is running the family business. Our personal lives have taken over our racing lives this year.

For what it's worth, my money is on Bucky this year.

Sorry to here about your family. Hope everyone is get well soon. Had heard about you dad being sick, just didn't want to post anything about it because I didn't hear about it first hand. It would be nice if y'all could attend the 2008 Cajun Sportsnational since West Coast Hemis were the stars of the show in 2006.
I would be nice if Bucky could win it this year since he got screwed (no pun intended) at the 2006 Cajun Sportsnationals.

Sorry to hear about your Dad Julie, I am a big fan. I just read about his old "Hemi Countdown" 65 Belvedere in the new issue of Mopar Action. Great story about an awesome car!

Can wait to hear those big Elephants roar!
Thursday schedule shows the Challenge [@28 cars] running after the first round of SG eliminations [@160 cars] and the first round of Super Stock Class Eliminations [@ 152 cars]. Best guess is after 10:00 - 10:30am local time, barring any unplanned delays

Yea, I wish I could have seen Big Joe when that number came up. Also J. Allen Sherman is running out of the Southland camp. I think Lil Joe is running Westcott heads and intake, not sure what Sherman is running, maybe MCH intake and heads.
Bucky and Houser are looking pretty good right now.
Man I wish I was there

Re: Mopar Super Stock Hemi Challenge

I was pulling for Fred Henson. My dad's best friend does alot of work on Fred's cars and built his stocker thats the national record holder, his 70 Challenger. Its been high 9's, here's a photo link to both the 68 Dart and the 70 Challenger.

I was hoping he could pull it off b/c that'd been an automatic final since both Westcotts are out. I think Houser has it in hand though. I hope Teuton can pull it off but we will see.
