Getting Ready for da' Bash

Okay guys,

Here's the weekend report thus far. Friday night at U.S. 60 Dragway, it was rained out. But before the rain George Keown ran a 5.68, 5.69, and 5.70 with his wheelstanding black pick-up truck.

Tonight at Windy Hollow, Bobby Small debuted his new American Racecars dragster with a 638 CID Pro-Filer headed engine, with single QFT carb on nothing but VP gas, and ran a best 60' time of .990. His 1/8 mile time was 4.52 @ 153 on his first full pass,,, and with Phillip driving it the car ran a 4.51 @ 153 mph. They both say the car will go in the forties.

Also at Windy tonight was Bobby Shrewsberry with his new 2010 American Racecars dragster and a 559 CID P-51 headed engine, single QFT carb on nothing but VP gas and ran a best 60' time of 1.013. I believe his best e.t. was 4.77 @ 143 mph. Bobby went several rounds and finally got beat in the 5th round. His words were; "It's a deadly consistent car, I pedaled the first four rounds."

sounds like they have them dialed in Charlie...



Randy

sounds like George's truck is moving ...... good to hear that Mr. Shrewsberry got his engine back together

Charlie,How fast was George's truck last year?

Rick,

I'm thinking mid to high 70's last year. They blew a transmission/convertor up Friday night on the 5.69 pass and loaded and left before I realized they were gone, (I was busy helping Bobby and David Lynch who was also there). I think there is still some there when they get everything sorted out.
