Towards the end of the season Scott Koffel tells me he wants to talk about my motor program for next season.

He procedes to tell me he wants to get more exposure in common racer feild and wants to use me to help promote that.

I don't even win that much

I'm not sure yet what is in store but I do know were going to put it on the Dyno in the next week or so to get a base line starting number.

So my motor is currently down at Koffel's Place awating it's turn in the shed.

Here's Scott with my mill



I know it couldn't be in better hands

Too bad he didn't take the tranny too.

Congrats Bill! And I'm not surprised that your engine is a very pretty blue.

Mike, there is so much wrong with that pic I don't know where to start

I was planning on taking my video camera and recording the pulls.

I'm not even sure I want to know what it's making though

Bill, I think he picked you because his official color is blue as well. . What would happen if he gave you back a Setback-Blown Top Alcohol B1 ? At least it will be painted blue, and kick serious A$$. Can't wait to hear what happens. At least it's a way to get some FireCore's on your engine. . Thanks, Scott !!

Good people deserve good things happening to them - simple as that.

I thought you were going to say you pulled your trans and found more problems!

But while we are on that subject are you sure the trans is gona handle what Scott is going to throw at it?

I'm not sure what all this means, will you be running B1 stuff now? Or will Scott just be tweaking your motors for you? Either way I would be honored too! congrats

CRT hooked me with good parts so hopefully it will be OK

Beleive me I more than honored to have this bestowed on me. As I stated, I have no idea what's in store after the dyno session.

All I know is anything he does with it will be better than what I could

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

The question I have here is why not ME? Seriously though, winning isn't always the best indicator of somebody who deserves sponsorship. I think you help Scott as much as he's helping you.
