9.15 et 148mph soft past hope to get it out soon and get my 8 sec time slip. The pic was taken at Irwindale but it came down hard on the oil pan that pass

You up and running again? Going to the Mopar Race at Famoso? I'm skipping that one..... too far, too hot.

Yes Al Irwindale property was sold to a developer. Current lease is good thru the end of the year, it could maybe go into next year.

Rumor is they would like to do a full width 1/8th mile in the area, and city of Irwindale may help. Talk is cheap we will see.

That may have been the first one that was scraped from the shop up in northern Glendora?

Shiloh I looked for you at the last NMCA race in Fontana, was hoping to get a bunch of pics of your car. Sorry to hear you smashed up your oil pan.

Re: first outing with the w8 mill - 06/19/15 01:42 AM

all I can say is building this engine I have met some very great people and I would like to thank everyone of you. My goal was 750hp. And with Bretts great head work. More power was easy to find. I was told by my machinist that my cylinder heads could make upwards of 900 horse power.so maybe some more compression and camshaft.may be in order soon..
