Jeff,

I think it should be, Featuring Mike Ricketts Macomb Missle. Shoed by Lonnie "The Lumber Jack" Smith.




Lonnie's got a bigger ego than Mike though...






Yeah I was told by a little birdy his ego was pretty big. I have not had thepleasure of meeting Lonnie yet but I will in Aug.....

It's all good just having some fun stirring the pot here because I can not do it at the track due to work and distance.

Brad Chopin 10.5 Pro Street winner. 440, 727, 8-3/4. It's got more of a Mopar drivetrain than most Mopars. Plus, the entire Chopin clan was there with their fleet of Mopes.

A Mopar motor belongs in a Dodge or Plymouth car, a chevy in a chevy and a ford in a ford IE No half breads plan and simple!

I guess some of you won't be coming to Jeff's events if thats the case. He lets anything run as long as its Mopar Powered. There was another ford racing there also. Yes it is Mopar Powered. Dana 60 not an 8 3/4.

Those dodge trucks we all use to pull our trailers the ones with cummins thats not mopar power. Chrysler used mitsubishi power plants so whats the diff. alot of vehicles are cross bred from the factory. Ford should have used mopar power plants or did they? MOTHUNDER 5??,727,DANA 60 all mopar drive line!

How come nobody complains when they see a mopar with a ford rearend or a mopar with a GM Tranny,and some of you mopar guys run chivy hood scoops....i'm sure the ford boys hate it worse when they find out that a mopar motor put their #ss on the trailor....

Hemi powered 40 Willys---440 mopar Wedge in and Anglia Pie Wagon and how about James Brown's 440 powered Maverick, painted Mopar Performance colors?-----------All half breeds. These cars were called Gassers back in the 60's and 70's. The way some of these Mopar racers are getting, there will be classes for red Dusters and classes for Yellow Dusters.

NSS/Guy -- Trailer was loaded for an early Sat. morning trip to MCIR, and still is. We had a family emergency and got home from the doctors at 2pm. Our 3 racers are down. One has a ventilated block and the motor is at Tony Depello's, Hemi Cuda has a valve problem, and the aluminum 63 Dodge Max Wedge is in the show room to be sold. . Add to the purse? I read here on MOparts that I was going to supply the winners with a "Ring Pop Sucker". I guess it was a play on the other race and running for the ring. HAHA. If any of the winners would like to collect their ring pops, PM me and I will send them out.I am truely sorry for missing this event and I will not be at the August event that Jeff Johnson will be putting on either. On that same weekend for over 60 years, our family has had a family reunion at my log cabin , and as we all know, family before everything else.

Thank you Jeff for the great picture of my Cuda with the valve problems. Tony Depello has the motor out of the 67 Belv, or whats left of it, at his shop, and just today we made the decision to sell the repairable .030 over hemi block and buy a new race block for the car. If anyone out there needs a Hemi Block for their restoration project we have a 4-6-64 build date on it . I would say that it is one of the first ones built, and could be worth some money. PM me if you need that block. Hemi Joe has first dibs on it though.
