and i've got a set of 215 RR heads that just might change the balance of power...
I wouldn't count the other 2 Quasar Blue nitrous cars out just yet.

Mike Jacobs has been 8's and so has Taner. Both are coming out this year as well. There must be something special about that color, lol.

hahahahahah......

well the only reason your car GOT fast Shep was when you decided to copy my hood..... The more your car LOOKS like mine the seemingly faster it gets.....

My engine builder is trying to get me to buy a gear driven F2 pro charger and put my car on E85..... He says "lets go blast off to the moon and suck the paint off T Shep's door when you go by".... I have to calm him down... LOL....

And Quik, there will be TWO cars with Rhode Island license plates. Mine sports one too... My dad's plate off of his old car.....

How many more TX boys you got going with you Tony???

I say it every year...I'm gonna try and make it, but no promises this year around. Would love to go, but between work and not having time/$$$ to rebuild the motor, who knows. Sept. is right around the time we do our inventory.

Tony your 235CC eliminators on your car are they converted SBC heads to reverse cooling???? Cause the website still says that 227 is the highest traditional LT1 head they cast....

Them 245's sound pretty nasty if they can convert those monsters to reverse cooling....

hahaha nopes..... I'm only asking cause when I beat Tony i'm just trying to figure out what his "next step up" will be.....

so i figure he'll just either go to 245's, or he'll attach an LT1 to a recaro seat and weld 2 axles and 4 tires to it and go for the record with that....
