Hey Jeff! I've been away for a while, but working on getting the casting shop back up and running. May be a few weeks or so, trying to get things together after two years is a little rough..lol. Nice cars buddy! And yes, those are nice flamemasks. I know the guy that does them personally, we used to customize diecast together (that's what he originally used them for). Also nice to see that Tbird still going strong.  After digging out my stuff for casting, I'm finding quite a few 'masters' that have never seen the light of day, but they will real soon!  Ron |

Ron Hey Ron good to hear from you. Ahhhh the Tbird....one of my favorites, if not the favorite car I have! It's been running for awhile now. Glad to hear you will be doing some casting. One of your castings comes to mind right off the bat. But we can discuss that later. I hope you will be joining in some of the racing fun as well! You know how the races go....the more the merrier  Welcome back. |

Dave632 posted the Smoky Mountain Dragway track records which I love to see. Track records give us tuners something to shoot for....a goal other than winning a race. This thread was buried in another board so I decided to post it where it belongs on the Bear Creek Dragway thread. It also needed updating. Nosubfor3 and the Blue Silk Corvette has set the PSO track record the last two times he has shown up. Congrats for that! As everyone can see, there are quite a few classes that have been recorded at several voltage settings. I will be running another event this year and I might run one of the hotter pancake classes....maybe 4 gear Top Fuel Comp / Super Comp...maybe Tjets...maybe.....

Very interesting, glad to see you have all your records available. Thanks Dave. I've updated the information now showing what type chassis and build as applied to our current rules. I also want to show what car has the record. I will have to go back and find that info. |

Some Nostalgia Funny Car test and tune action going down this weekend. The Twisted Texan Pinto is running hotter than it ever has! The King Cuda has been an under achiever so a completely new chassis is under the body for this years International. I hope to make a solid showing at Voltage Valley. Now it's time for some Street car tuning .

Got a new front engine nostalgia dragster coming from Hairy Canary! I am super stoked to say the least! This will be a custom for the Texas Nats.
