Great news Joe. And I see Penske Trucking has signed a three year deal with the Grove which is wonderful. Bowling Green Hot Rod Reunion is the week before. Wonder if that will be a shootout again?? I could stop by and look for Hard Attack's back bumper!

One of my customers asked me to post some pics of whats going on around here since I have been kinda quiet lately. I guess you can call it a "virtual shop tour" I just finished up fully machining 8 hemi blocks, and am working on Lloyd Woffards motor right now. Just got done honing Dan Zrust's new block, and am preparing the shop for the new HAAS ST-30 lathe I ordered, and Landis CNC cam grinder. I hope to be fully "in house" by the end of the year.
I have plenty to keep me busy, so I guess the class isnt dead yet.

A clutch for Hensons new CJ ford. I sent out 3 clutches yesterday, one hemi for Wayne Brooks. He bought the Defrank car, and I am finishing up his motor now also.

Far from dead! Glad your rockin'. I need a seamstress. Can you do that inhouse? You should get your and Sr's holiday gifts today, check out Miss August. Go Saints!!! 4:30 your time in case you didn't know.

It better not be dead......best freakin' class in drag racing today, IMO.

The day I watch a football game, I will be sitting on the couch with Jesus on one side, and Elvis on the other.
I recieved the calenders the other day. I got 3 in the mail from mopar that they must be marketing, It had actual winners in it. My dad, and Daniels. I guess we will see which one sells more.
Maybe R-M can sew up your chute. They should proably learn how to CC a piston, and what the rules on carbs are first though.

Thats Hemi John's old car.

Watch it now, fall from the top is short.

R&M. Lets see, 7 National Championships, 58 National event wins in prostock. Isn't that the class we are in? Their receptionist can CC a piston. Carbs was my fault as I was told to change them. RV broke, ran late etc,I forgot,no excuse. Bales made $20.

As for the calendar of "Losers", well heck, we are all real nice and will try harded this year. SLH

I know how to fall from the top, I did last year for 3 months. Its not about that. You can tell everyone how great R-M is till you are as blue as your car. The facts are you have probably spent 50K over there so far, and you are .02 faster than Comella at the dutch, than you get pitched for illegal carbs. You didnt seem real happy about it when you called me that day saying that R-M wasnt taking care of you very well. You can sew whatever you want to on your chute ("sorry charlie" for the ones that didnt get the calendar), and you can send all the pictures you want of your new trans, and assume thats going to put you on top. Its offensive to those that have actually been successful, to have someone who knows nothing about racing say they "cant wait to outrun charlie" with a transmission swap. As far as R-M doing anything for you, I am sure if they foscused on it solid for 3 years, they could be on top. You just have to outspend the Sheik, and they will spend the time you need.
Was it their receptionist that sent the email asking how to cc a hemi piston?
cw

i think reher-morrison's question for checking dome volume was to eliminate any differences there might be between their typical procedure and nhras' procedure,,,

is there any hope or what is the status of having a form of a hemi shootout at the martin ihra national race? is there anything racers can do to help this along? do we need to come up with sponsor money?

Actually, that was me. In the intel world that's a poison pill. See who you can trust. Mission accomplished! Sorry I offended anyone, and those that know me, know better. As Forrest would say, That's all I got to say 'bout that. High Road...

Charlie, that should be your new T-Shirt slogan.

Jesel on the front and a picture of the Warbird on the back with large lettering...
