Years ago Bob would show up at a few of the old Chrysler Classic Events. At one event he had a tenth on all of us, and we were running some big motors, as the rules allowed. I walked down to his trailer and bought one of his T-shirts and asked him how big a motor he was running that weekend. He just laughed and wouldn't answer me.

We are putting together the YOU DAT HEMI SHOOTOUT at the NHRA National Open Nov. 18-19 at No Problem Raceway. Record runs will be during qualifying. I just spent all day at Reher Morrison making our plans for upgrades to attempt setting the AH record but we are WAY out of our league. 168 with a 5.0 gear is a whopping 8.5k rpm. We need to rethink our 10.5k rpm program.....I have never met Mr. Reed but certainly have heard a lot about him and that is a VERY impressive run. Perhaps someone will let him know about NPR in November. Should be a good race if weather permits. Phish

PS the raw weight of my car is CLASSIFIED. "Need to know" type deal.LOL

Ole Bob sure has sure stepped it up from the last time I saw him run then. If Lenny Melton ever came on here anymore he might shed some light on this...him and Bob are real tight.
