Default Pro Stock Certification.

Well, Hank Blankenship was at the track(Rogersville, Tennessee) this weekend for chassis certifications...and it was the first time I had mine done..

Got the '88 T/A chassis certified for 6.00 seconds/200mph and slower in 1/4 mile, too bad the tranny/gear combo I have wont go that far.... right now anyways. He said it was the highest he'd gave at that track so far and one of the best chassis he's ever seen... Now I just need a motor to put me there since I know the car will handle it...I'm only running 6.50s right now...

Dad's Tbird was certified for 8.50 and slower, uncles Camaro he just bought went for 6.50 and slower cause he still has stock frontend, if not for that he mightve been with me...

Just thought I'd tell everyone though, maybe next year it'll happen...

Brookside Transmission over in Kingsport, Tennessee. They then proceeded to screw us over on a bunch of stuff, and we'll never be back there because of it.
