Oh boy! I think I'm going to let the professor tell you all how good his day went. That vacuum pump sure did help! Damn that Nova was moving! He had some good reaction times too! Come on bbbenny! Where too next?

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

A perfect day for drag racing! Benny was running 10.3X ALL DAY LONG.

I took several pics and 1 vid (while taking pics at the same time). Once I get things uploaded, I'll update with more. GREAT JOB BENNY!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Cool...can't wait to see the pics and video!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Little Youtube video I shot while trying to grab some action pics. Could have been better

I wish I could have gotten a progression. Right out of the trailer, 10.39! Benny knew the day was off to a good start. Fastest the car had ever gone! Second run was a 10.34! I don't recall exactly what #3 was but in the same area.

Weather was perfect and it was a great day to see Benny and his crew. Nice day of racing and congratulations on turning your best times yet!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

BENNYYY! Is that the Godfather looking over your engine? BENNYYY sounding like a B/MP car of old.

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

bbbenny's Race Car sounded and did the best with the fastest times so far. He had a fun time too with perfect weather with his &quot;Moroso Vacuum Pump&quot; doing the job. His Pit Crew was all over,congratulations bbbenny, and a fun time for all.

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Saw him run the 10.34 against that little Opel GT. Second run I saw, the other car light the red light and Benny took it easy the rest of the way. Car was running good and the reaction times seemed to be right on.

This is a quote from BBBenny on another link:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Something new for this year,in the dutchman racing car. We;re installing a 496 motor in the car. The motor was built by Sams buddy Pete. He;s the same guy that built the one thats in the car now. This motor got a mechanical roller, 12:5 compression, single four barrel.Should fire it tomorrow. We went 11:21 with the old motor. Should be able to run in the 10s, with this one. BBBenny</div></div>

I can add that I believe he's running a T-400.

That's hauling a$$, with a foot brake an HP eating TH400 and those small slicks. Congrats.

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Hoping to race Sunday, at Numedia. It;s a money race, which is a plus. The weather;s looking good! The Dutchman

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

10.30 today????

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Results from sundays race. First round dailed a 10;47 ran a 10;48 won that round. Second round cut a .038 light but not not good enough againist a .022 light. I got a video to show the first round win. Thanks The Dutchman

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Your sponsor is getting nervous I bet Professor. Fast times but these second round departures are tuff on the budget! That Plumbing Company that pays the bills may be getting restless a little. You may need to do some match racing to help the budget. Match racing always pays off big. Will be like the old Pro Stock wars of 1970.

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Benny, I'm trying to get this video posted.

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

I will post the video that Benny sent me tonight when I get home; I could have sworn someone already posted a link?

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Bruce, I tried to, but I'm not sure how I can do it from my phone?

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Bbbenny, I hope to get to really chat with him sometime. Today was not a good day for me as you know. How did you do?

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Cecil County results. The car was running great! I went to the forth round and lost. But we ran a 10;30 ET, 133,plus MPH. The car was flying. Even a couple of dollars in the pocket to boot. Sorry no video. The Dutchman [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img]

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

WOW, Professor that is real good. car was flying, you were driving and a couple bucks in the pocket. That is a winner in my book! Great air at the County!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

Hey Benny-cool stuff!

Is the GoPro working? Do you need help with anything?

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
 

ALRIGHT! 4TH round and some payout coin. That's a good day. Way to go Benny!

Re: The Flying Dutchman 2014 New Thread!
