Congrats to Pete for the big win and to everyone else! I have been checking out the boards for some time and figured now is a good time as any to start posting.

I managed to get some pictures you can see here:

Peter Staging Warming up the Goodyears

Rob Staging Warming up the Goodyears

Jim Staging

I also have many more pictures if anyone is interested. Keep up the great work on the site!

It was great to see you guys running the cars they way they were designed to run - on the track!

Craig.

It sounds like you guys had a great time.

I hope to bring my big fat Impala next year. I want to show you guys how heavy metal is suppose to run.

Rob & Pete, tell us some more.

Craig:

It was nice to finally meet you in person! If there are any more cool pictures you want to post, we would be glad to see them!

L78Imp:

Bring out that big car! Someone who lurks around this site is trying to get into an L-72 Biscayne for the event, so an L-78 Imp would compliment it perfectly! The Chevrolet hi-po big cars haven't been there in force yet, but there is no time like the present! Hey, how about you shoot a pic of those manifolds and post it...I'd like to take a look! (Or maybe I just want to see what I'm missing!)

For your viewing pleasure...
This is what a perfect light looks like:

0.500 Launch

Berger Camaro Launch

LS6 Launch (Can't forget about you Chevelle guys..)

Can't wait till next year, I'll have to bring my 69 RS/SS and run the Polyglas's.

Craig.

Actually, that is a non-cowl, dual snorkel, auto/column car, that ran 12.50s[img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]! One of Jansen's several early '70s auto/column A-bodies, and they ALL seem to haul @ss!

As for the "daylight under the tires", little bro was referring to the slight wheelhop problem I had with our LS-6. It was TERRIBLY violent to say the least. This seems to be a common problem with 4-speed A-bodies, particularly the '70+ cars. Any ideas on how to fix it? I've got to figure out a way to hook my '69 when it's done.
