Mr.Frugal Macironi(Eric)will now want to borrow someones chisel since a good one cost more than $5
Bob...Eric is a pretty good racer. No doubt he is gonna turn on some win lights!!  I have a question...Did he put new spark plugs in or is he still running the ones from his old 446"? 
He borrowed a new set from me,he will return them after he trys them out for the next 4 or 5 seasons.

looks like everyone knows the "real Eric"
But on a serious note ---- great job getting the car to run those numbers and like said there should be more in it  Just wondering if the car and you can take anymore

Wow...And I would go with an SV1 on that engine since you do not currently have a dominator.

I decided to meet Wafflebatter at Thompson for a gamblers race Saturday since the weather was looking good. Anyway...I've been running the car on the launch control because of...well..lets just say BGR built a motor with a bit to much power for my ride without an anti-roll.. The car is still running a 850 Holley and would no doubt benefit from a dominator.
So...it ran a 8.95 @ 148 off the trailer I was .005 ..second TT I lifted when it got a bit loose at the 1/8th mile. On to the Gamblers....all six of us ..First round it ran a 8.94 @ 149 with me -.0005 red on the tree...he was dialed 9.71 and left about a half an hour early giving me the win  ..I drew the buy for the final and parked it. In the final I got the right lane which I hadn't been down and it left hard..well aas hard as it does set up soft. I picked up two in the 60ft and lifted before the 1000ft...I was .010 to his .040 and caught him quickly when his fuel pump belt fell off. I figure it would have been a low 8.91...
I think this car will run 8.70's or maybe .60's with the right carb and the anti-roll
Your my hero   At Monster Mopar(Indy) last year a couple of good looking gals came up to me while I was cleaning the 65 blower cars windows and asked me for a my autograph.Beaming with pride I accomodated them,they walked away with a puzzled look on their faces and I heard them say he's not Donny Martik as they threw my signed flyer in the trash can.

That's the way BG builds racecars "off the trailer point and shoot" tell him to build a mid 10s car and you get high 9s. I think there is something wrong with his math. By the way BG you better give Max his share of the ice cream cups,I think you been holding out on him,he is wasting away to nothing at 210 lbs. Mike

I use the "new math" always be concertative and let the performance speak for it's self.Usually when someone ask me how fast will it run,I tell them they will know after they make the first pass or my general words"you will be pleasently surprised".Mike your car was built with leftover takeoffs. and Max is getting to be a"picky" eater in his old age.This month he is on a turkey craze and won't eat even topshelf Alpo.
