Yes - Robin is kicking some serious Butt out west - You think he's making this Chevy guy nervous in this video - which is a good thing -- Right .

I know I have been tardy many times this year so I laugh when I say this but dang Robin got left on!!!!!! Badly! That's what I call makin a sandwich.

It's only fair me saying that cause I was bustin a few nuts a while back on Reaction Times. LOL I think Robin was watching that Wheel stand before he left the line he had a front row seat!But the main thing is The Pontiac guy got the win light!
If Robin reads this I appologize and I'll buy ya some Aurther Bryant's BBQ next time your in KC.

Wareagle,thank you for posting that video it was awesome to see video of the MightyTA Goin down the track at speedworld in Whitman AZ that's a awesome track!

Haha I made the list.

I predict next year I will be on the list because of my car's performance...hopefully because it runs really strong.

I have purchase the engine, the carb (and shortly) the headers from people on the list...if it doesn't run the number its all on me.

For stumbling did good - no problem on the reply - Robins best ever was a 8.13 I think - Pontiac V8's have been making good gains all around which started out as a 287 - the Original Design from which we now have IA II - MR1 etc. Blocks keeps marching on -- On the Eats - Cool - sounds good - I like a good steak .

So many ways to beat the current record with some extra money for Turbo or Chassis upgrades. That being said, they still have the HP to go into the 5s.

(As does Mr Bill Mellott with his "state of the art" Chassis and boosted engine parts.
Bill just needs more track time to get his deal sorted out and he WILL be in the 5s).

Yep -- I would like to see 6.50s - car has the power for 6.20s or 30s but gotta figure out how to get to the ground.

That's what it is all about Curt...power management. Some people don't understand that concept. They think because it makes "x" amount of power that it will run "x" time and that's the furthest thing from the truth with high HP applications. I'm sure you will get it squared away!

Curt -
When you gonna come hang out with us at Norwalk? Even come down for one of our local races. You're welcome here anytime.

And if you want to bring the car, that would be cool too!

TQ
