Got in the Saturday gambler and made it to the final round with Mark "Grape Ape" Kirby. Got a by round second round with a 001 light, a couple went red and got a by into the final with 006. Mark dialed 10.65 and ran his number with 001 light. I went two hundreds under with an 036 light. Got schooled but was awesome!On to Pro eliminations!

Good job guys..........AGAIN.................... Dom, this carb is perfect! 12 runs so far this weekend from 9.97 to 10.02 only thing I've done is move the timing from 36 to 38. Driver still has some work to do though. Went red first round in pro this morning, try to buy back and hopefully go a few rounds.

BTW, anyone know what the quick 32 bump was? There was NO bump with only 19 cars entered....Sad but true, only 7 Mopars I believe including us..

Wow what a great time... there was a ton of Moparts members out there.. sorry about the tough break Jay... it was amazing to see Al and his son come to the rescue of a down racer... they made a special trip home and done some welding for someone they didn't even know... I guess they're still good people out there... all in all had a great weekend and talking to with Phil painter... the Mopar car count was up especially due to the amount of modern muscle.... he's very excited and optimistic about what's going on in the Mopar Community concerning these new cars.. I think it's time for the Mopar people to get back on the bandwagon and bring this back to life.. the amount of other makes and models in other classes was few.. the field of Pro Mod cars put on an awesome show... and I love watching the old school fuel altereds make passes... I'm already looking forward to next year

I agree with what a lot of Shiloh said. Lots of interest in the new muscle stuff. I also believe you guys need to some out and make this the best Mopar race out there again. My only "complaint" is there are WAY to many classes IMO.

Shiloh thanks for the kind words. We are always willing to help out however we can. Poor guy had his clutch fork break off at the adjuster. Took it home fabbed up a new one so he could get back home. Couldn't leave him stranded in Vegas afterall Hope you didn't have to much fun downtown. Never heard the aftermath story Jay bad luck for sure. You were gone so fast we didn't even know what happened to you. Next time we need to pit closer together. This late evening meals are always appreciated The Central Cali gang was sure kickin butts again this year.

Al please let Steven know that Roger (the guy with the clutch fork) was blown away by his help and very thankful.
It was another fun event for me, I aways enjoy meeting up with some of the Moparts community. Only real bummer for me was taking a nap on the starting line in round 3 Sunday.
