Rob Goss just ran a 4.39 @ 164 in X275 in his Gen 111 Hemi in Georgia. #1 qualifier so far.

It's hard to tell people that aren't familiar with the class just how impressive this is. He's probably one of the heavier cars in the class, running a unique combo and, to my knowledge, using a filled FACTORY 6.1 block. There are something like 52 cars trying to qualify and I would be surprised if any of the others are using a factory block. He's making more than 2000hp. I wish the corporate folks would make it easier for us racers to source more and better parts because gen III's have incredible potential.
Cruiser: 66 Dodge Coronet 500, Indy SR 440, Gen 7 Accel EFI = 11.38 @ 116.
Racing: Brand X, X275 Procharged Smallblock on M1, Leafsprings, Holley EFI = 4.30 @ 168

Last I heard Marty had the Challener up sale.

There are two Marty's. Marty Robertson runs the blue Barracuda in RVW on a 315 and Marty Pearcy runs the orange Challenger in X275. Haven't seen Pearcy at SGMP and like Al mentioned I have seen the Challenger advertised for sale.

Once the dousches at Mopar get 100 orders paid for the 6.1 blocks, they will get cast. Depressing, but if demand isnt there it isnt there. I guess im luck I have mine already.

Man that car is running GREAT. Does anyone know what happened on his last pass late last night. There was a small delay as the guy in front of him dumped fluid on the track and I don't know if it wasn't cleaned up right and he spun or if there was another issue. Finally got it hooked up so I can watch it on my TV instead of my dam computer. Mopar guys are looking pretty good.
