I want to know what they are going to be also because I'm at the point where I can build anything I want since we are starting from the ground up.

Hey Steve, what are you gonna replace the truck with? Another truck or a car this time? We will make the final decisions on the rules once we finalize what the payouts will be( the two kinda go hand in hand) and we will post them as soon as we get to that point...What are you asking for the truck?

not much, i havebeen busy swapping jobs and dealing w/ an xwife on child custody. went to work for progressive taking care of their tractor trailer and dumptrucks. trying to get a game plan together for next year, but i am just not sure. trying to sell my toterhome, cant afford the thing. i have been thinking about switching to pro mod type deal. little more racing closer to home but i am not sure. i like the factory style cars alot more. did you build the 55 or whose did you buy? yeah, i know what you mean---when the % goes up the tires usually do to. what color is the 55? waht trans you going to run? whats is weigh? where are you planning to run the 1/ 4 at? just fill me in i guess am asking too many ? i havent haad much time to keep up w/ things, but i do like the ohio valley crowd too. later, scott

the car is red/ white, bought it from greg ryden, a guy in NM had it built 3 yrs ago and I kept track of it when he had it for sale,{long story} bought a quicker drive{similar to bruno}and 3 spd lenco. in the PRO series the trans has to be manualy shifted,and I"m not happy about that. with a 632 & no ballast weight is 2600{w/ glide, greg had to run the car at 3250 in NPS} their rules are 2650 {I can"t get that light with the blower & trans } but two friends of mine run pro street in that series,so I"d have some people I knew at the track. and osca has outlaw street & weight is 3000 . another reason was the goodguys meet in BG, and this car fits in there rules also {this is one big reason for buying this car,} hope this answers your ?s ,steve

We will have the rules straightenened out within a week or two at the most...We expect to see a tall goon climbing out of a blown 55 next year so dont be making no plans for the 3rd Saturday of each month...

Hey Steve, that truck would probably sell alot faster if it was in Louisville...Drop it off and we'll see if we can find a buyer within the next year or so...By the way, bring all of your extra parts when you bring it...hehehe

You don't need too many rules 3,000lbs and a W tire now that's easy to check and maybe give a 200 or 300lb weight break for a real 10.5. Now were talking.
