Nice camera angle though, too bad no sound really.

I have only caught one episode of Pinks all out. Talk about a shitload of breakage and accidents just waiting to happen. How strict are they on tech?

They are pretty strict on tech, but occasionally a car gets through. All it takes is a couple cars out 350 with a leaking radiator hose or rubber trans lines that finally gave up to delay things for hours..

It was a long *** weekend, but it was the most fun we've had at an event so far. Seein that many people and being down there in front of them forever was great, and big congrats to my bro that was driving the Monza, he took everything very well. We were already packing up and he was the very LAST car that they called in the 16. If I wouldve been running about .2 slower than we both mightve had a shot at being in.
My dad was driving my uncles car that passed away, the red 3rd gen camaro... ran a string of 9.70s but it was having a few problems. Me and my bro got lined up to race each other out of luck the second pass, but it was pretty exciting racing each other heads up. I'm not sure what the times were, but my best was 10.34 at 132mph and his best was 10.59 at 126mph, so he wasnt too far behind me going through the traps.
It was a badass night meeting the Pinks crew and all, but now it's just time to relax for a few days and try to win the $50,000 at Bristol next week. I told rich and nate to come back to Bristol, and they said they would be back. The guy with the real pointy goatee, forgot his name, was extremely cool. I talked to him more than anyone and he just chilled there and chatted back for awhile about everything, everyone from the crew was really nice to us.

Pics are me and my bro, my uncles car that my dad was driving, my blue t/a, and a few from the last runs. Will put a bunch up tonight in a new thread. Oh and did I mention, my bro in the Monza, he drives a 1998 Camaro Z28, and is a diehard LS1 guy, haha. Here's a video from 5_02ls1's album of me and my bro running.

I thought someone in those pics would probably be you. We were pulling for you guys the whole way in the 16. I have a few more pics if you want them I can email them to you. PM me if you want them.

Black_Bird I was part of the "crew" with the old Winnebago that had a red Malibooty parked on the trailor after we blew a motor next to you guys. We drove up in the Sunset Orange WS6. Considering that car does mid 10s all day long on DRs AND our pal blew his motor, we should have raced the WS6!! Anyway - I got lots of good photos...i'll look for some of you too.

Very Nice picks macon... Thanks for posts, I'll PM ya for the email address... It was nice meetin ya too... Memphis should be alot of fun... Friday night She ended up going 9.60 @140 with the DA around 3200... Not bad considering Kp said she'd run about 2-3 tenths slower... My 2-step ended takin a **** so I put it right on the converter... cut a 1.40 60' tho with the 9.60 pass...
Beautiful facility - by far one of the best tracks i've raced at...
Kev, nice meetin ya... very funny how a-like are cars are, trucks, oh and trailers... Ya prolly didnt think i was such a youngin huh? Lol... Gotta say your car is FAAAAST for the same **** I have... I was listening to the announcer when you pulled up on sat for qual #1 said something along the lines of, "this is one of the fastest stock appearing cars on the lot" yea buddy...
Unfortunately my old man filmed the wrong ws6 goin down the track... sorry dude... will get ya next time!

I would already have lunati billet rods from my last setup, It was the only thing salvagable.
Thanks

In the 347 i have a callies crank, JE pistons, oliver rods, comp cams... All the good stuff built by w2w and merely identical to kp's... If you want a well built engine to run 13psi this is your shortblock...

I seen some nice pics of your underhood and interior and you have a nice looking car, the announcer was also saying some nice things about yours as well. Too bad we were pitted a mile apart, I meant to go over by you guys but I was too lazy to walk and it was too crowded to drive the car over, I have to get me a golf cart or something. Good luck wth the new engine, I'd be curious to see how a 402 will do.
