Anyone hear any times ect. Only info I have is that Andrew(kidd) ran a 13.06 at over 4000 density altitude. These are the first runs on this car, could go 11s in good air . |

13.06 at Vegas is pretty awesome for the first time out! Is Andrew still on the motor or did he go to the dentist? |

I am sure its on motor only,k1 rod /piston home ported head,not sure about compression.That gives us Andrew,Aric ,Wayne, Doug and a couple of new cars coming soon in the twelves. I will be in that range for Kearney, seems everyone has stepped up about a second over the winter. |

Yes.... Andrew (Kidd) has a good engine there, he just needs to do some additional tuning and it will be way faster in good air. I was able to do another in the pits, "between rounds" distributor recurving job for his new combo. using borrowed tools and parts provided by others... That effort got him over a second and helped the car settle down as far as better starting, idle and off-idle performance went, I still have my "touch". ![]() ![]() I also did a valve ajust for David F. and his black 63 Dart GT. That is the car that we did a "by-pass" operation on last year. David replaced the cam and lifters and it's running well with a replacement Erson cam. Guzzi Mark came right out of the box with a 13.95 so he has his car back to where it was before the bearing spun. That car has more in it. I need to get photos posted tonight along with more race info. DD |

And I was first round fodder! ![]() Hooptie ran a best of 16.75 not bad for the altitude! Now I need to figure out how to cut a light with the new front runners. CJ |

An update: Andrew and crew are still not home yet. They had a major mechanical failure on one of the tow rigs, and then lost a trailer tire later in the trip. I'll let Andrew bring everybody up to speed when he gets home. Sounds like a rough one! They are still an hour plus from Eureka. ![]() CJ |

Been there... done that and don't like it a bit. 2 years ago, Allen and I had the "tow from H..." with our tow home from Vegas. (we blew a head gasket on the tow car) It took me a month to get the wagon fixed and another month to get my head back into racing. ![]() Best wishes to the Howards on getting home ASAP. DD |
