Hey Madman,
Looks like you have the interest of a few people. Including myself...you can bet that I'II be there as long as it is towards early spring. Still working on the new combo, looking forward to me and you going heads up!

I'm going to email you a picture of the tail lights of my car so that you can get use to them.

So far I have not heard anybody that will not be at the North vs South pipe in. Lets do the money as a side bet, winner takes all on top of the current payout planned. I don't know if I will be able to hang with you "big dogs" but I'll throw whatever I have into it.

Perhaps a private track rental somewhere centrally located?

Suppose you need an idea of who all is willing to come. I think you know those of us who will come and those of us that wont.

That should get you a good idea where to hold it.

Also, since this is ***** to the wall with little to no restrictions, lets see just how fast a 3rd or 4th gen will go period on stock suspension. I know someone who is itching to smack down this lil' stock suspension record. Let's let the big blocks play too with a weight penalty. The suspenion will be the limiting factor here. Call the race, "Last Man Standing"....

There isnt a car out there I'm skeered of. He might crack my *** but he will know I was there. LOL!! What weight penalty you want?? I dont know of any p/a cars that can get to 3000lbs AND be NHRA legal so the N/A cars will be the only ones that will be at 3000lbs.

I'm thinking of a weight penalty for power adder and n/a since the big block has advantages in both.

What are you proposing the weight be for a P/A SBC? Add a a couple hundred to the SBC weights (beit P/A or NA) and call it a day.

I think seperate NA and PA classes would liven things up some.

A'ight...now that I'm home and have had some time to think I'll throw my ideas out. I think 3K for natural aspirated small block and 3200 for p/a small block. I think a straight 3400# for bbc.
