This race is always a lot of fun.

MoKan is an historic and well run track.

Come if you can!

From Mokan's Facebook page:

MOPARS INVADE POSTPONED TO Saturday MAY 12
SCHEDULED for Saturday APRIL 14, now Sat. May 12
We held out hoping the weather would get better, but the forecast gets worse by the hour. Cold temps, strong winds and heavy clouds, it will be a miserable day to be outside. Let hope for better on Saturday MAY 12!

Dale got the job done in Super Pro today.
Dale's 15 year old son Billy saw his first bracket racing action also, unfortunately his Uncle Darren slapped him around on the tree pretty hard!

Little Billy went 0-4 today. Lost first round in No-E and Sportsman, Dale bought him back in both, and he lost again in both. His brand-new-to-him long bed Dodge went a best of 15.57@90 mph, 360 for power.

Boone was my picture taker today.

I don't know the Kirk family, but they sure have some nice machines, especially digging the Green 68 Valiant.

Congrats Dale! and thanks for posting the pics Billy.

This Dana 60 swap has whooped my tail ever since the beginning. What should have been a weekend swap got drug out and I lost my push to get it done.

Really nicely done early Barracuda (66?), with a twin turbo Gen 3 Hemi swap.

Both the Slant cars are very nice pieces. The green Lancer is also an air shifted 5 speed.

We had a great time at Mopars Invade MoKan, as we usually do.

Kayse got a bunch of runs in her Yellow Charger Daytona, she was hot lapping during time trials. laugh2

In eliminations the was sleeping at the tree and lost because of it.
She bought back in, cut a pretty decent light and the broke out by 0.005.
Which of course was her quickest run of the day.

The green 68 Valiant posted before used to be owned by Moparts Member Bluescuda (Scott L.) about 20 something years ago.
It was a decent car then, but it's faster and nicer now.

I'll have to resize my pics, the file sizes are all to larger to attach.


Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

Damn I didn’t know you was there mopar billy. I would of came over and said hi. I was there watching my two friends race there car and truck. Jason Teague was racing my old 71 Duster. It was yellow with a black stripe with 440 on the tail end. He built a gen 3 Hemi for it. He is still turning on it, but his best pass of the day was a 10.30 at 132 MPH in the 1/4. My other friend James Flores was racing a 88 Dodge Dakota. He also had a gen 3 Hemi but is more of a mild engine. He hurt it last weekend and still was runing 7.0 in the 1/8 I think. When he first got it runing it was runing 6.80 in the 1/8. There was a lot of nice fast cars there.

It is great to see a pic of my old '68 Valiant. I sold it 25yrs ago...it went through at least 2 different owners before it made its way down to Southwest MO. Glad to see it's still around and looking better than ever. Here are some pics from the late 80s or early 90s.
