Stock Shortblock Shootout updates and competitors thread.
Ok never mind I just did the math on what it would cost in diesel to drive there and back towing the mustang.... Looks like i'll be flying out to watch this time around. $2200.00 not counting tech card and race fuel. I sure do wish I could though.

This is a joke. Apparently people dont know what "stock" shortblock means.
So if there is "much aceptance" will forged rods and pistons be stock shortblocks too?
Rod bolts are part of the rotating assembly, rotating assembly is part of the shortblock. If you use aftermarket rod bolts you alter the shortblock from the stock state.... dont need to be a genius to figure that out.

Right now, several people are finishing up builds and getting ready so the race will be pushed out a couple months. Some looking at June-July timeframe right now.
This will be an awesome race, just need to get some cars to come out.
Also need to discuss 1/4 or 1/8 mile???
So lets start a list of who is gonna come race. Several stock shortblock guys are real fast and should be easy money!! We are running a new car that has 0 passes on it so just hope it gets down the track. On ebay ordering parts now

I'm in. 1/4 mile. So far as I can tell Skinnys has the record at 8.65 @169
I don't want to change out my rear gear so probably won't do well in the 1/4. But we get in the low 10s I will be happy.
Especially one thats gonna kick a rod in 3-5 passes lol
Better figure out what you are doing wrong if that is the case.
