Fingers are crossed and we'll bring extra towels to sop up the puddles on the track. See you in the staging lanes or the tech line or wherever we all wander around.

Both passes I was able to make were virtually identical:12.261 and a 12.265. MPH were 113.71 and a 113.19 Guess the 406 didn't like the single plane after all- thought it'd be better, but with that e.t. and mph I'm still smilin!

Rain or shine. If the weather breaks, I'll be out there along with others. Heck- with so few cars attending due to "inclement" weather, maybe we'll all get awards for one thing or another.

overall, how was the show?

Well, I haven't been to one in about ten years and I wasn't impressed. It would have been OK if they didn't stick you for twenty bucks. About half of that would be fair. In the old days their would have been lots of used parts for sale in the swap meet area but their were only two people selling. I think the regular POMONA auto swap meet is hands down the best all around show and sale for the money.:rolleyes:

Dale and German,
Sorry I didn't make it out there. I was only going to be able to go on Saturday, and it looked like a "one pass" day. Hope you all had fun and did well.

We missed you two "Bryans". The competition was most likely glad you did not show, or else they would have gone home empty handed as you guys would have one best of show awards and the like.:D

Dale,
I am in the process of doing a few changes to the 70. First a hood (5 inch cowl) I can see around, a bigger fuel pump and a 1000 cfm Pro Systems carb. The hood should be finished this week, the pump is in, and the carb is waiting for a float bowl with a driver's side feed. Thought about going to the Good Guys, but I might just go to Irwindale for a couple of hits.

Sorry to hear it was like that-no parts. The one in Memphis is huge with sellers all over the place. I can hardley wait.:D

My son and I made it out on Sunday. I told him Brian's car (cup holder)should be racing. He was excited to see that. Too bad it didn't happen. He did get some excitement when that 57 nitro car hit the rails.
Is it me or has the Super Chevy show been declining the past few years?

I'd say it was down from last year, maybe from the weather.
