Well the flyer I got in the mail said that there was no Super-Pro this year, and if you go the Sac website, they list Pro Mopar (no electronics)

Rich is correct, I called Tony at Sac and he checked on it for me.. There is only PRO this year due to the low car count in Super Pro from previous years..

Hey guys. I'm new here, I have passed by the site before in the past. I think I will be at this race to check it out. I have a 65 Plymouth Valiant, which I guess will fit into the Pro Mopar class. I have never run a .5 tree, but will enter for fun and to check out other cool cars. Look forward to seeing you guys there

If I can remember correctly, there was 2 cars in SuperPro and approx 30-ish something cars in Pro last year..

But if you're not doing anything that weekend, a nice little road trip up the middle of the state would be a good thing...

Last year Joe Brown and Rich Nedbal were the lone SP cars and raced for $100., Rich won in a bit of a unconventional way.........

I would love to go if I could bring the RR, probably can't though too much to do. I do have a free tech card from there though, wonder if they still would honor it at this race

Yeah its the 4 door, the Renterias old car. The truck is parked for the time being. We had the Valiant for about 2 or 3 years just sittin, and we decided to get it out there. So all we did was take the motor/tranny out of the truck and put it in the Valiant. We have been running it in B/Gas for the past season. This weekend we are opening it up to see what it will do. This combo ran 7.90's to 8.0's in the truck so we think it should be about the same. The only difference is we have 4.11 gears in it from when we ran B/Gas this year, it had 4.56's before. I'm sure that will kill it a little. Plus the air/track probably won't be great this weekend. When the Renterias had this combo they ran a best of 7.68 with it, but that was with 5-Speed. I'm anxious to see what it will run this weekend. Running the new Pro Sportsman class at Sac at the Nor Cal Invasion race

Kenny best of luck at the Sac and Invasion race. That is a very nice piece but so is your truck. Wish I could get up there and run my heap but alas no place for it to race either.

Must have been two years ago that only one Super Pro car ran that race. The Orange Dart, the name escapes me. My son was there talking to him, they gave him his entry back and let him get all the runs in he wanted.

Unconventional? I dialed a number and then ran it. What's weird about that?

Thanks Al. I'm really pumped about this weekends race. I am going to run this class all next season and this weekend is the test for next year. They are putting up decent money to win. Class should be good, basically the same as Top Sportsman except with a pro tree and qualify on reaction time. Minimum dial in is 8.20. I like it because Gillette and them guys won't pick up a whole round on me just by qualifying with a faster car. This way should bring driver more into it. The Mopar race will just be for fun, see if I can't hold onto that transbrake for an extra tenth of a second! haha

Sandbagging is not that unconventional or even weird, but taken to the degree you did that day was hoot! Joe didn't think it was that funny tho LOL!

How did the race turn out? We broke the ring gear on the flywheel 2 weeks ago so I wasn't able to make it.

The race was bigger than expected, but smaller than it could have been.. I think there was something like 60-ish racers in Sportsman and 30-40 in Pro..

The car show was laughable and so was the swap meet.. No doubt the entire event is on the decline.


We will continue to support the event as long as possible as we would like to see this event prosper, but something interesting that my son pointed out.. This was the only Mopar Only race in Northern Cali.. and if memory serves correctly.. it was the only Mopar race in the entire State of California..

I was pleasantly surprised at the turn out of race cars; thought it would have been less. The highlight was while I was standing on the starting line watching sportsman a guy in a late model Chally overstages and "backs up" into the beams at the direction of the starter. Tree comes down...reverse lights are still on. Hammered it in reverese!! YIKES!!! Luckily he caught it right away and no harm done except for his ego.

There was a car show yesterday?? You must mean the 15 cars parked on the pavement... (The tan 63 Max Wedge car was WAAAAAY COOL, though)

Swap meet?? You mean the 6 guys with the junk scattered on the ground?? Hey, there were "bargains": The "ported" J heads for $100...the internally balanced 360 cast crank for $25...the guy who drilled the counterweight and welded in the mallory must have been BLIND. And drunk!

Nice weather was a surprise and the added bonus of a cool military airshow next door at Mather made an okay day...even though we were out in the 2nd round after a -.003 red light. Opponet went .330 for the win. @*&@%^$#&@*^%!!!!!!!

Isn't there still a Mopar gig at Infinion, or did that die off as well??

I was the guy that helped set up the Infineon deal with Wine Country Mopars, they decided they wanted to have there show last year at another venue so that was that. This year there show was canceled all together. I am in hopes they may have come to there senses and we can set up something again, we will see.

I would have liked to race there yesterday and try out some new stuff on my car before the ET finals but no Super Pro and I was not about to pull the box out going into the finals. Sounds like they had a great turnout race wise.
