Wow, that is one beautiful machine, and 6.81 seconds is quite the dial in! I would love to see your car and hear what's in it and some stories about it and your past races. Awesome!

Thanks Thanks !!!!!!
Haha
Dial might be a little deceiving as it was at a 1/8 mile track it runs about 6.39 in the 1/8th and about 10.20 at 134 mph in the 1/4, Did a few things to it this year so think it should run a high 9 before the years out has a steel headed 427 in it right now.

I have ran low 6 s in the 1/4 before thou. use to run a alcohol funny car

Went over all the pictures in this post again very nice pictures thanks again for posting , going next year for sure. The red and white c1 I am pretty sure use to be out of Calgary and had fast Eddy on the side I think then ended up in eastern Canada and just came back to Alberta in the past year or two.

That funny car must have been a wild rush? I will see you at next years Mission drags. It has become an annual thing now. Great people and really cool cars.

Now does this not read like an open door to a "August Cruise" next year? Sure does to me.

Always next year Bob. This drive has a certain type of appeal to it.

Start planning, we are going again next year! Sounding like it may end up a being a Corvette convoy cruise there next year.

I'm in Ziggy. I'll take my winter week off in February and that leaves me 4 weeks for summer and fall.

Well okay, I do have a weak spot for ice cream. Chocolate Peanut Butter Moose sounds tempting.

I'm a Vanilla guy myself - not that you'd know it looking at my car.

Nice thing about being retired is "ALL" my weeks are available. Can't wait to head to AZ for the winter.
