Congrats Tom....I hear the MEAN GREEN YENKO MACHINE...went a season and career best at 10.17 ET and 1.36 short time . That 355 is hauling ass. Glad your season was safe and fast ....it's better to race super cars ...then to restore them and stare at them. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img]

Thanks... with wet and cold weather headed this way, figured I had better get in a day or two of racing in. On Saturday went to Rogersville to run the 1/4, shooting for a 10teen. Out of the trailer a 10.20 backed up by a 10.18. After cool down, went out and ran a pair of 10.17s @ 125. Good track prep (1.36 60&quot;) with decent air, a slight head/side wind.

Sunday, Drew and I made the trek to Sikeston (Dyno Dom's place), a 1/8 mile track that always hooks very well. Couple that with cool temps and really good air, a chance for some good numbers. Started out good, with a 6.3511 @ 105.5 with a a best 60' of 1.3205. As the air got better, the Deuce just kept getting a little quicker each pass, ending the day with a new 1/8 personal best of 6.3048 @ 106.14. A couple of folks (hopefully)are to send me pics of my launches, as the Deuce was standing up big time, the highest, farthest down track ever.

Was a really fun weekend, as at both tracks everyone could not get over the fact A. it is a real Yenko B. that a naturally aspirated 355SBC door car could leave that hard and run those numbers.

From a couple of weeks ago.. Rob and I at Sikeston. Though not as much smoke, reminds me of the days at the SCR when Pete and Drew would try to out &quot;burnout&quot; the other.
