Re: The new flying dutchman!
There is Joe (Soul Survivor) learning how to do the Lehighton Flash! Just kidding Joe! It was just a funny shot. It was really good to meet you. A lot of good guys on this site live in the area and I am meeting a lot of them!

Re: The new flying dutchman!
Here is the proof that bbbenny was consistant as the motor was good. bbbenny was number 4040 in the right lane. He was turning out those numbers all day long!

Re: The new flying dutchman!
Lookin good guys! You are the spark Jed-I.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
I think bbbenny can explain better about how it all ended. Fill them in bbbenny!!
I'm just "young blood" and I'm learning more about racing from Mr. Day 2, The Lehighton Flash, and the Plowman. So, as bbbenny's "fill in" PR man,(Sammy was away sunning himself at the shore), I am signing out! SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY!!!! |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
I went five rounds, lost in the semi-finals.I dailed a 10:81 I ran a 10;81. lost it on the line, he had a 045 to my 071 light. Can;t complain small carb, first time out with the new motor. Walked away with a few bucks in my pocket. Thanks for the support! BBBenny

[img:center]http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/j...d/100_1415.jpg[/img] </div></div> LOL, thats when i seen ss427copo(Jeff) driving by in his `11 yellow camaro. Jed, here is my chevelle i was talking about. the wheels up photo is at atco. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbthrea...4047#Post414047 Benny, see you in a few weeks... i'll shoot down on the scooter |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
If he changes that converter the "Flash" may need wheelie bars!! I think 10.50's to 70's is right where that car wants to be. Low maintenance, low expense makes it easier to win. YEAA!
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Sam,he allready went 10.724 at 127.03 mph that day. I think a carb or some tuning could do it. Remember first time out too.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
well the carb is too small... its starving for more. 90 jets and its still on the lean side. he went faster then a 72, but we'll let benny tell. lol
with more carb, some turning and timing. 30's-40's. after that... caltracs,split springs and convertor.. bennys gonna a need a physical and comp lic. LOL |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
BBBenny...........Just keep throwing money at it......The 9's are so close........
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
That car does NOT say B/MP on the sail panel for nothing ya know! I think Benny should sell a couple cars and build a REAL race car! I can see BBBenny running a SB in Comp eliminator. The heck with this bracket stuff. Go Benny Go! Go Benny Go! Its only money! Hey maybe he can campaign 2 cars like some of these other teams. Jed in the nova and Benny in the??????and Paul (Plowman) tuning both and Nuck N Futz senior pit crew. Yes, back to the future. Love it!
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Sammy, sanctioned cars sounds like fun. He runs the big block and I run the small block. It could have Lehighton Blumbing on the door and "His Apprentice" on the quarter. I doubt that my long Polish lastname would fit on the door windows, so it would most likely have to go it the rear window.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
JED-I on the quarters!! Engine by Pete's Automotive on the front fenders and tuned by Plowman Performance, Glenside, Pa. on the trunk lid or bottom of the doors. Hows that?
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
There ya go. Return of the Jed-I on the quarter would work.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Impressive. I love the shot of you going to the line with the Ford. Looks period correct.
I think he's doin great right where he is. He told me this morning that they have a 5k to win race next week off the foot brake. If you can stay outta the electronics classes, and just run your dial in, and have fun, it's a good day. Goin to the semis on a new setup 1st time out is a very good day. |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
That is good Sam the man.

[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] great job and great coverage. Jed, time to upgrade to VIDEO !!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img] |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Chris, too bad you are so far away! But yes, I need to learn how to get it downloaded to the computer then youtube.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
I think Benny should put YOU in that car Jed-I. That car would pick up a tenth and a half on just the reduced weight factor. YEAAA!
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Sammy, where do you get all of your material? You should be a comedian! Benny was already trying to get me behind the wheel. I think that's just his way of trying to get me to put a Big Block into my Nova! Kinda like one feel and you're hooked.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Jed...big blocks and Novas go together! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Sammy says small blocks pack a punch Bruce and Benny says go big or go home. Im just the PR man. I have two teachers in the same classroom.
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Benny has his old motor sittin in his garage. have Pete freshen it and go with it. I bet you a $100.00 Benny will NEVER use it. If you can't afford it lease it from the Professor of lehighton. That is what many pro Stock teams do. They lease engines from other teams and engine builders. Go BB if you have the opportunity Jed-I.

Re: The new flying dutchman!
Listen to Sammy Jed...
My Nova went from an inline six to a big block... http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...eetMachine.jpg And ran good numbers for an 8:5 to 1 402 (the driver sucked though) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img] http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1..._timeslips.jpg |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Xplantdad</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Listen to Sammy Jed...
</div></div> Yeah, Big Blocks tear up drivetrain parts a lot quicker. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
you hit the nail on the head Dennis when you said alot....... QUICKER!
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
BBBenny..........Just a little bit more and the 9's are easy......
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...8/DSC02223.jpg |
Re: The new flying dutchman!
U can go as fast as your wallet is deep! But U can;t race from the couch. As long as your having fun and safe. Stage shallow!
|
Re: The new flying dutchman!
Benny does NOT need a turbo to run in the 9's. I believe he is going to build a SuperGas car in the future. he got a taste of going fast and can't get enough. I told him to sell those other two lawn ornaments in his garage and go to it. He may not WANT to admit it but he caught the bug and knows that drag racing is way more exciting then sittin at these all day car shows and falling asleep. He told me he never knew that cars had more than just a first gear and reverse gear till he started drag racing. In and out of the trailer....in and out of the garage. Taking match race bookings as we speak.GO BENNY GO!

Re: The new flying dutchman!

Re: The new flying dutchman!
