Pete:

Here is where the Studebaker guys generally hang out: http://groups.google.com/groups?oi=djq&as_q=studebaker This is the archive for there newsgroup (I am a member of the newsgroup also). Do a search on "yenko", and enjoy the reading . I have a bunch of the threads regarding our car (known as the "loser Yenko" to some on that newsgroup) printed off on a piece of paper that I am using for "inspiration".

I would LOVE a rematch, but of a "certified" Stude versus our "certified" Yenko. I haven't really said anything to the Stude guys about any of there comments, but the letter kind of "got my attention". Oh well...we'll see if our rebuild will lower our ET any...

Casey:

So, a tow vehicle shootout...any entrants so far? How about a category for BIGGEST tow vehicle/trailer?

Casey,
I will be ready pretty soon!! I am getting a plug in chip and a set of marine injectors, Hows 330 horsepower and 870 ft lbs at the rear wheels sound. Whats even cooler it dont void the warranty or hurt mileage as long as you dont drive like an idoit Cummins- The Ultimate Driving Machine!!

Pete is right but if you do start one here I would use both of them as I enjoy hearing everyone comments! Ron

Aw come on! Let's not start this tow vehicle
thing again! Just when I thought it was safe to go on line again. What's next? A ten page run on about a small block Corvette being a Supercar or not. Rob, Thanks for the info on the Stude sight. I kept typing in Stud instead of Stude....not very much car related stuff there at all!
Peter

Rob, rOb, RoB, you had to go and give me the Studes site ....... what's a guy to do ..... I thought it was fun with the Buick boyz ...... you ain't seen nothin' yet.

I got into the board, but do you have a specific thread about the Pure Stocks, or that silly reply in Post Exchange, or slamming your yellow car ???

So, Pete...Stude does not equal Stud?! I bet you found some "interesting" stuff when you searched for Stud! There isn't a whole lot that doesn't go on over there that isn't Stude related, but it is good for a change of pace.

Mike:

I have a couple of friends with Cummins tow rigs...would mind divulging how much the upgrades set you back? Did Jim Haas (Buick528) hook you up with the mods?

Casey:

There are several threads concerning the Pure Stock Drags, mainly telling about what cars the Stude ran against. The archive @ Google is a good place to search for any topics, and you can also search a TON of other news groups for any topics. I ran across a bunch of newsgroups I now read by way of the Stude page (which used to be Deja.com).

Thanks Rob .....

Just spent some time siftin' thru their banter .....

They just don't get it, do they ?? If you wanna get someone wound up about the Studes, just ask my buddy, Brian Stefina (61 283/270 Vette), about them the next time you see him. He will bring you to tears talkin' about those guys.

I will reserve any further comment at this time ......
