I wish I could but I won't get back from India until about noon, and I'm pretty sure I won't be in any condition to race after spending 35 hours traveling.

I'm really jonesin to get some racing in..

I think I'll be working on the car. Gotta get my gears swapped for drag racing & drain the sludge. IF I'm not working....

This turbo car needs to put a new clutch disc in. Noticed driving down the road the other day that when it comes up on boost, the motor speeds up but the car don't. There just happens to be another turbo car in the garage in my way right now anyway. Hopefully be done by next weekend tho. Anybody got a set of 3.73 gears for a 9" laying around?

I've been tossing around the idea of getting another 3rd member with a spool and 4.56... How long does it take you to swap out 3rd members? Can you do it at the track?

It takes about an hour and it makes a real mess. I'm not sure doing it at the track is realistic. Besides keeping stuff clean is very important.

I didn't make because of some pretzels. It seems that the 5/16" pushrods are not up to the task.

Those are made the same as Ford factory roller lifters. That is, the good ones look like Ford models. The bent ones look... very very bent. That's what 8200 rpm shift points will do to you. Besides roller lifters and some pushrods, anything else damaged?

This is national open weekend I wouldn't recomend going unless you are really into bracket racing. Long waits and minimal runs unless you win rounds!
