Hallett video from last Sunday

WOW! Sammy! Turning 1:30's in that heat is cookin'. Great video and good lines. "Wild Bill's" car looks kinda like the Animal House Special. You need to consider getting your Vintage Motor Council License and come racing.

Thanks, Larry! I miss you being at the track with me. I'll be retired like you one day soon and will need an economical hobby .. like racing Formula Fords or some small displacement car .. maybe shifter karts for starters

You'll remember what a racer Wild Bill is from when you were at Gateway. It took me 3 or 4 laps to reel him in He is only about 4 sec slower and that is the first time on track for Frankenstang. We shared a raceport. You guys did see this pic, right? 110 degrees in the shade ...

What rear gears do you run? Nice laps, trying to figure out where I am so much slower than you at, you are smooth

Tim, it was sure good to see you, Mark, Dean, and Dave W. come down from STL for this thing. I run 3.31 Jag IRS rear, all special inside built by Mike Bontoft at Concours West. T-600 trans, .82 5th gear. But I run Hallett entirely in 3rd except for turn 3 where I drop to 2nd. Don't know what block you have, but if it is iron 460 then there is about 300#. I have all aluminum, and the 427 is smaller and faster revving, with roller cam and Erson roller rockers. Rev limiter is at 6K. Tires are soft compound replica Billboards, almost as sticky as slicks. Our rwhp are similar, I think about 420 on the chassis dyno. Hope there is a clue in there somewhere ...
