This was my 2nd MATS and the 1st with the Valiant. It was great to meet Aguire, GBob and Jeepmon. As Ted has posted, Hollywood, was his usual awesome self performing crew chief duties on both of our cars. I made 7 runs (a total of 14 now on the car since completion). Best ET 9.625, best speed 138.88 and best 60ft of 1.338. Not bad for a new car and an old driver! Can't say enough good things about Rob at RJ Fabrication who built the car. PS-Had a photo shoot session on Sunday with Mopars Max so hopefully it will be in one of their upcoming online magazines.

That is a great looking Valiant!

I was talking to your friend right when the photo shoot was finished and then the photographer drove by and said hi. He is the same person that shot my Valiant at MATS last year. Jerry Heasley.

Good luck.

Bill, Beautiful car and nice meeting you as well. For those who did not go look it over you missed out. The car is awesome and the attention to detail is second to none. Oh yeah it also runs realy well for a smallblock
