charlie, what seems to be the biggest performace difference between the auto and stick cars? curious as to what kind of clutch you are using? ever talk to rob youngblood about one of his duals? i know you guys are no strngers to stick cars. i run a softlock that he had modified and am very happy with it. my next move will be to one of his dual discs. i've talked to you on the phone before about used jerico gears. i don't know if you remember, seemed like you were pretty busy putting a short block together.-dan

cgall~ I would like the link too please. It has been quiet, I have been alittle under the weather. Startin to feel back to myself again. Isn't qualifying on Friday for that shootout in Vegas? Sounds like a good one to keep an eye on with that line up. Westcott and Henson should definately be ones to watch. ~Stella

According to Ogburn post on Marie's site, Warfish, Henson, Pancake, and West Coast are going to have a shootout for $10K to win.
Now that will be a good race, I would love to go.

Hey Julie, Mazz's car is not going to be there. Jesse Quote:
DeFrank & Faherty, who are both expected to be in attendance at this race, are not at the track yet. Other than that, there are 13 cars in attendance so those two would make a 15 car field. Those include: Westcott's 2 cars WCH's 3 cars Pancake Barton Dart (I understand it's been sold) Hopkins Henson Vierra Raines Raybourn Mazzolini
Some are running today but they're all shutting off early.

Here's info from round 1 qualifying...bear in mind this came from Ogburn and could be off some. 1. Houser 8.847 2. Henson 8.848 3. Pancake 8.85 4. Raines 8.89 Barton and Ogburn both ran 8.90 Westcott Sr. 8.93 Westcott Jr., Mandella and Jenkins all shut off early due to spin or whatever.
