A 1968 Pontiac Ram Air II Firebird from MI that was a truly max effort build was runniing well into the 10's. Another car of note was Lane Carey's 71 Mustang Mach 1. This red beast was killing it all day with a few 10.50's! In the end though it was Dave in the Hemi RR that took the honors. Also retook the MPH record at this event with a 134.48. Mopars were well represented as the Quick 8 Had half of the field in Chrysler powered cars. (Dudek, Hodges, and Ed and James Cook). Steve Hodges finally got his 10 second pass in the green Challenger. Way to go! Special mention to James Cook who managed to run an unbelievable 11.12 @ 126, rowing the 4 speed. Congrats to all that attended this event. We had a great time. MB

James can really get the job done with that beautiful red A12 4-speed. HP Mike can do good work under pressure. Oh the other car is my AARCuda running it's new best with my son Brian driving.

And congrats also to the Pontiac guys and Lane with his Mustang for dropping deep onto the 10's, and to Hodges for getting the Hemi Challenger into the 10's. It is absolutely amazing how such a wide array of cars are all running so strong within such a restrictive set of rules. Just a few year ago, everybody thought that only an L88 Vette could break into the 10's in F.A.S.T.. Now there have been several mopars, a Ford, a Pontiac, at least a couple Camaros. I better get off the computer and go get busy on my car so Tom dosen't yell at me. Congrats you guys, well done!

I look at my 68 GTX, which is all stock body, interior and drivetrain and think it would be cool to build up a F.A.S.T. project with it. Then I realise that I have to run a cast iron dual plane with no spacers and a AVS heads-up against dual quad hemis and 440-6 paks? That seems fair LOL!! It just seems to me that they're shutting off a ton of cars from playing by catering to the factory package cars. I could just go get a 69 runner and build a clone lift-off hood car to play I guess, just wish I didn't have to Anyway, grats to Dave and all of the other fast mopars mentioned, you guys are flying

There are only a handful of people that actually go to a race wanting to win the whole thing. You win nothing. A trophy, the same as anybody that wins a 2 out of 3 match race. The whole point is to take a combination, build it to your budget, go out and tune it to the max, get the best times you can, and have fun. You should have seen the pits after sunday's first pass, everybody was so happy for everybody else. It doesn't matter if you broke into the 12's, 11's, or 10's, in FAST you get the same respect. Bottom line is build your car to how fast you want to go and have the time of your life. Work In Progress- 71' Duster F.A.S.T.- 10.36@130 Smallblock Record Holder.

I'm so damn competitive I forget what's really important, HAVING FUN! I guess I'll look into it a little further. The question I'd like to ask is how do they detremine what's a "stock" sounding cam? And who decides? Thanks again for the post

It doesn't seem all that long ago that were all in awe when Dave Dudeks old purple Hemi Challenger was leading the pack and running nearly the exact same times as your small block runs today, crazy how much faster these combos are going now days, truely awesome!

It would probably not be a car you would consider competitive but with a stroked 400 or 440 topped with a worked over Thermoquad and a car that's got all the .10 light wight tricks I bet you could build a monster!

Some Wagner brake drums are lighter than others. The non fin types are pretty light and there is one style that is the lightest. Aluminum front bumper brackets.

There were a lot of people happy he wasn't there and it went by with no drama.I did not hear one person say he was missed.He made his own race group and did lots of bad mouthing of FAST .In this day and age everybody wants a do over but when you step and sometimes stomp on toes a second chance is not realistic and should not be expected.I twice stated in a thread on his website that not everybody would welcome him back to FAST and twice he deleted the post and banned me from his site for life.I did not swear or call names the worst thing I said was he might be as welcome as a turd in a punch bowl.I guess he likes to ban (myself and at least 2 others that I know of)but dosn't like being banned.

To be fair Steve, Ralph never saw your posts. I built that forum for Ralph and am one of two admins. When somebody joins a forum with the only intention to cause trouble, the posts are going to be removed. The ban was just easier when you re-registered. Thats the same way its going to be handled pretty much anywhere and I don't know why you are feeling slighted. 2017 Contusion Blue Challenger T/A 392 M6 "BLKNBLU"
