So what was the deal with that Orange Z28?

Maybe Jeb can post that video he has of last years Dec NoBull of Ed Nash busting his car up, not a pretty sight.

Maybe they can run 2-3 ET classes of No bull to make the competition alittle more fun for others. I couldn't figure out a dually running 15's to line up with a 9 second ride. Still do the 30 mile trip, come back and cool down, let cars make a qualifying pass and have the closer ET's be drawn to race each other.

They had talked about doing 2 classes but the turnout for the first 2 races in Bradenton has not been what it was at OSW so for now its just 1 class at BMP. Those pickup trucks were run by guys who have NoBull cars that are down so they ran just to get points for the season ending payout.
Little Bulls "Real" NoBull at Lakeland Dragstrip runs a DOT class and a prostreet class there was 15 prostreet and 13 DOT cars at the March race, that next race is May13 at Lakeland Dragstrip I think(hopefully more cars next time) , Paula`s car could have won the DOT but Greg drove and he cut a bad light in 2nd round.

the key to having 2 classes at the 1/4 mile event is attendance so we need more 10/11 sec cars to come out.
I think I'll run my car at the next 1/4 mi event. Have my son this weekend.

Ed Nash wheelie clip is posted at video_LS1Tech_com ... not sure if it's working http://video.ls1tech.com/video/F88C0...FDE11C712C.htm
There is a better one posted if you search on Ed Nash > Mine is just a different angle with a closeup zoom of the front end as it hits ... coming back down. I suck at video taping and my camera doesn't have a USB port, so, the quality could be better. At least you will get a classic beer gut view at the end of the clip ... LOL!

Well it is a fun race, but for most of the cars like we have taking them on the street isn't a big deal especially when you can drive over from 3 hours away and use a half a tank
Well, maybe it will pick up in popularity. As much as I like to race, and go to BMP I'd be up for it to run close races, they ar the most fun afterall.
And a chance to win some coin is also beneficial to me to pay back my gas used to and from.
So maybe we can talk to Wade and see what we can come up with? I personally have nada, zip, zilch for some of the cars there yesterday. So for me to partake would be like a turtle and a rabbit racing.

Nice big wheelies by both Devon and Paula in 2nd round, unfortunately they both lost. Hopefully we can all do this again soon but with better results.
I was glad to see Ed Nash win NoBull finally, he rolled the car on the roof 2 years ago, stood it on the bumper last year and messed it up and has been close so many times. And Devon by the way the Monte Carlo that you lost to traped the same mph as Ed Nash( 8.5sec car) and only lost by a car, so he might not have used both kits against you.

nice to meet everyone. i just got hom 10 min ago, its 46* here, and raining!!!!!
Devone, im guessing your rear will need a little spool action to get it to go straight, your in the zone where no spool is dangerous.
anyway, good times, and the wheel stand was pretty sweet.

D, you don't have a spool yet? damn get on the ball son!
Hope the 2 class idea gets entertained, I'd make an appearance with a slow 10 second ride if it doesn't conflict with a points race here.

Greg had just tightened up the front Devon can you imagine if he hadn't. OMG I don't want to even think about that.

spool is the way to go for race, its a huge weight savings, and it realy isnt that bad on the street.

Folks who want 2 classes are completely missing the point of why this was set up in the first place. This was always about being the fastest. Have mufflers, make the cruise, heads up. There have been a few tube chassis cars in the field. The general consensus by the other racers is so what. Just bring it. I personally would be really disappointed to see this get diluted with a slow class and I'll continue to vote strongly against it. There's my .02
