Russ,know you battled lot of bad luck last year, you and I were in the same boat. Your taking it pretty serious though going to a multi car team with a Hired Gun for a driver and blocker. Don't know if NSS is ready for that. We'll all be watching to see if we see any cases of "team orders" when the Konkowski team cars roll up into the lights together. As long as you don't have the whole class complaining about the Konkowski Multi Car Team, sounds like a good plan.

Ok I guess I need to pull out all the stops to be competitive. I'm going to cover Dizusters turbo with a vacuformed cross ram so I can have
my own team car. Then we'll bring lots of giveaway beer.

Glen, Doug and Casey - we need to team together to take on that "Team Thug" group that has won the NSS Championship for the last 2 years in a row and gunning for a 3 peat!

Anyway we are working on the car. The block is at the machine shop right now and should get it back soon. In the meantime we are starting on all the other stuff such as ====


Getting ready to start cleaning up the engine bay:


Interior is out and have to start working on the "roll bar" install:


Front suspension coming apart for a rebuild and disc brake install:


Leaning towards this intake to start with but me thinks if we go to a different intake and depending on the final engine build maybe we should put in a "roll cage" instead of a bar



Alot of work to do but hoping to be ready this summer - we shall see.

It was recently announced that NSS will have their own class at the independently promoted Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals...from Michael Beard of Loose Rocker:
Nostalgia Super Stock was a part of the original US Class Nationals, and from the beginning of the Northern Class Nationals we've had requests to include Nostalgia Super Stock in our program. This year, we will do so.

2nd Annual Auto Meter Northern Class Nationals
August 21-23, 2015
National Trail Raceway - Hebron, OH

This is the week before the NMCA event at Norwalk, so teams could make a swing out of things. The race will have live video coverage on MotorManiaTV.com

The plan would be for 2 qualifying runs Friday and 2 qualifying runs Saturday. NSS racers would be permitted to enter Saturday's NitroPlate S/SS Combo Warmup. NSS will have its own eliminator on Sunday. The entry fee would be in the $100-$120 range for $1,500 to win and paying at least 8 places. Naming Rights sponsorship on the class is available.

I talked to Michael last year about including N/SS. He said they would consider it. The Loose Rocker series sounded very good when I talked to them. I'll put it on the schedule.
