Well Had gotten one of these "free" DVD's in the mail from hotrod magazine... It's free if you send it back. Anyway they had sent me one of these before - I had already watched it..already last time, But I decided to pop it in the player and Watch the bonus material for some reason.. and there are about 5 Shots of Seymour and His white Valiant Driver / Racer Slant 6 car. It was fun to watch! Greg |

Seymour definitely proved he's one tough old coot that year. He was at Monster Mopar before, and then left for KC and I don't think it was below 85 the whole week. He had his daughter with him too. |

I was there to watch Seymour that year. His daughter was 7 or 8 months pregnant and rode all the way with him. What a trouper. Great people. |

Yep I second that! I neve have Met his daughter but She must be a good hearted soul to do the trip for a week in the white car - not to mention getting there and back from the twin cities area! Greg |

Thanks for digging this up, it's fun to reminisce. It must have really been 2005 when they had the first drag week because Darcy who Robin was carrying then was 5 in November. Later that fall Robin rode with me when we went out to Redding to do the race there. On the way back from California I was having some trouble shifting but that didn't stop me from taking it to Farmington the next Spring. I was really having shifting problems there so when I got home I pulled that motor out. The head had broken off one flywheel bolt and several more were loose. That was keeping the clutch from releasing cleanly. I also found that I had swithched the #2 and #3 main caps! Unbelivably the upper thrust bearing fit on the #2 journal okay and it really didin't seem to have hurt anything. |
