a Mopar wins the Bryon Wheelstand contest - 10/08/12 01:10 AM

I was at US41 with the Slowski's this Saturday when I get a call from Larry Jeleniewski he is at Bryon for the wheelstand contest and he told me the trans case is cracked. He asked can we fix it by Sundays race, I said sure, get the car to my shop.

I had a 904 pre built at the shop, you might have seen it in the transmissions for sale here on moparts. Larry gets to the shop, we swap out the transmission and get on on the trailer and back on the way to Bryon (3 hour drive) by 10:30 pm
Well Larry did a 660 foot wheel stand, set a new track record and won the 10g pay out. Congrats Larry

Just goes to show, 900 lbs. of lead in the trunk really does work!!

10 grand payout is great! Forget bracket racing, just enter wheel stand contests!

A back bumper wheelie to the 660' cone is nothing to sneeze at.

Hell I thought you had to flip your car over to win
that show(which has been done in the past)... I'd
love to go there and try running it.... BUT I"M A
CHICKEN SH!T.... LOL.... where is that track in IL
Are you allowed wheelie bars... if so I could put a
short set on and stant it straight up to just clear
the bumper(I'd tear my bumper off if it hit)

Re: a Mopar wins the Bryon Wheelstand contest - 10/09/12 03:04 PM

It's on rt 72, about 20 miles southwest of Rockford, and the contest pays at least 3 ways. Longest, most violent(damaging) etc.

He's pulling your leg. I entered that thing for many years with wheelie bars on.
