Sure looks like its going to be a long season for them, just hope they can pick it up soon. Being 2 MPH down to the better GM cars is going to be a tough task.

I feel your pain. If you take out the Summit cars AJ looks better but the new rules certainly seemed to throw the Mopars in a bigger loop than the others.

Line/Anderson figured something out early the other guys are still looking for.

This is second round Topeka:

It threw a bunch of teams a curve, not just Mopars. Being down .03-.08 in et and 1.5-2 mph is hard to make up. Did anyone notice Andersons and Lines reaction times last week? It looked like they were playing it safe knowing they could drive around everyone else. Just like WJ did in his heyday.

I won't even waste my time watching it now... the new rules basically put the Summit cars way out in front after the past few seasons being so competitive... they sure know how to ruin a good thing! I have to say I find watching Street Outlaw guys and other similar groups on youtube 100 times more entertaining anymore.

Allen and Roy seem to be making good progress for all the turmoil they've gone through.

Team Summit have a great EFI guy AND a pretty huge budget. Pretty hard combination to beat.

Hopefully some new intake manifolds will get them a full tenth and 2 mph!

I sometimes wonder on when they got access to all of the rules. The Summit boys definitely seem to be at least 1/2 of a season ahead of everyone else.

Look at Elite Camaros...Vince Nobile is driving EE championship car from last year...and they are not close to the Summit cars...EFI threw everyone a curve...and the KB cars has it figured out better so far...

Yes,the Summit cars are good. After that it's pretty close. AJ looks like he making ground. The rules are the same for everybody. Just one team has figured out their combo sooner. Happens in every heads-up class in any type of racing.

Buckner is real sharp on EFI.. he showed Line(being
they are the same teams).. AJ will come around with
Wilson coming on board... this isnt even a half season
and people are crying.. how long did it take PS to get
to this point... YEARS... look back a few years and
there were other teams that were way quicker

Bo "Butner" didn't show Jason anything on any EFI program, Jason does the tuning for all 3 PS cars. Bo doesn't do any EFI tuning on his own stockers either.

P/S has always had one team that seems to dominate for awhile, then everyone else catches up and someone else rises to the top.

He might be, but he's not tuning anything he or anyone else is racing.

It's just like the magic Hogan intake manifold thing, might keep some from concentrating on what really matters.

V. Gaines is really struggling and is giving up about .16 in the first round tomorrow against the Summit car. I hope he doesn't end up losing his sponsor.


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.42@138.27

Livin and lovin life one day at a time
