Folks just decided to try a different Midwest race location. Kearney may be back later.

I understand - Too Bad I am not doing any long hauls - I might like Iowa - It's a bit closer than Kearney.

Team Green will make more N/A slant six event passes under 10:99 than all other teams combined!

"Terrible Toad" '62 Lancer will debut before 2012 Clay City!

"Terrible Toad" will set more records in 2012 than Guzzi Mark and they won't be at sea level tracks!
Okay, let's break this down. This has been sitting with me, so I just had to look more closely to see how outlandish (or not at all :wink: ) the above statements are:

The first one is very doable. In fact, it's almost a given if they just show up with their new FED at MoKan and make a few passes. :shock:
(Hey Tyrde-Browne Racing Team! These guys need a little competition THIS year!! :D )

The second one is also very doable. If Mark posts something like the above you know he's already well on his way to getting there. I hope the benchmark of Clay City means that they plan on being AT Clay City! :wink:

Which brings us to the third and final statement...

Guzzi Mark currently owns 6 records (ET and MPH in A, B and C Gas)

Mark (Goodman) said that the "Terrible Toad" will be the one setting more records in 2012...

Is this the same "Terrible Toad" that still owns the B/Alcohol ET and MPH records from way back in 2003 at 10.71 and 120.81 MPH!? :shock: :?

If so, does it still weigh 2445?

If the answer is "Yes" to both... How can they grab more than 6 records this year!? :shock: :?

Will they remove / add weight to bump into A and/or C class?
Will they switch between Gas and Alcohol?
Will they add nitrous as well like Guzzi Mark is doing this year?
Will they attend both 1/8 and 1/4 mile Slant 6 races?

Or, is there some clarification needed to the third statement..? :?

Mark (Goodman), do you mean to say that the "Terrible Toad" will set more records than Guzzi Mark HAS in 2012,... or more records than Guzzi Mark SETS in 2012..?

(Guzzi is going to run Nitrous and try for the A and B (?) Nitrous records this year. Possibly others as well..?)

Either way and no matter how you read it,... 2012 is going to be one very EXCITING year for Slant 6 Drag Racing!! :D :D

How much $$ and time do you think it takes to put a rail together?
I have two cars that are faster than yours and I am retired my part time job and SS don't give me much to play with, but I am still playing :lol: :lol:

Gee Mark, if you want records, I have some nice 45's somewhere.

A few LP 33's, and might be able to come up with some 78's.

That just isn't going to do it for you is it? :lol:

I take you for an Osmond's fan. Am I right?

My predictions are:

The AA/ records will be started on the East side. :shock: :lol:
Mark will set some records :lol:
The top points racer will be from the East side :roll: (sorry but that is my guess) :oops:
