Looks like I'm going to be packing for the trip instead of racing! I've pleaded my case but have been over-ruled! looking forward to next year.
Found that my front disk brakes were locking up so maybe some better times later. Hard to run with brakes on.
Good Luck to All. |

My equipment is loaded. This will be round V?? of the 2X4 WCFB carb shake down. Hoping for some positive results with the latest changes. _________________ "A Classic Car is Not Aerodynamic" |

great day for racing! only two from Team DC were racing at the final race of the year, Tom Walker and James Carson, Tom's '57 ran in the Super Muscle class (13.00 -13.99) and was eliminated in Round 1 (dialed a 13.55, ran a 13.83), James' '57 ran in the King Muscle class (12.00-12.99) and won Round 1 (dialed a 12.24, ran a 12.29) but then lost in Round 2 (dialed a 12.24, ran a 12.51) as he fell off his normal time, Tom continues to make improvments to his experiment with the 2 - 4 barrel setup but it looks like we are done until next spring!

I'm not a Pontiac fan but I have to admit they stole the show for me, today. Those big "421 cid wide tracks" were too cool, especially for us ole guys that watched them in their real hey day in the early 1960's battle it out with the 409 Chevy's. _________________ "A Classic Car is Not Aerodynamic" |

Tom looks like your intake did well. Do you like it? Also I am getting ready for next year just got a new trans. I have had it for one week and it still has not put itself in. What shocks are you using?
