Jeff's 12.1 has now scared off Arsenio, who's next to fold?
It seems to be working Jeff.

Arcy is not folding anything. Once he drives his little 6 cylinder again the venom will start flowing.
The list as I recall it from last year. This may start an uproar because I will probably get it wrong but here goes.

Al
Mike
Chris
Rich
12 second club members
Jeff
Wolfie
Arcy
Mark
Fred
13 second club members
Sid
Ralph

I don't really remember any others, but my memory is about as long as Ralph's peepee although it was kinda cool that morning.

Wasn't Jeff's 12.1 right out of the box???And slowed down from there--wheel hop, missed shift, etc---if he beats you challenge him to go double or nothing
Chris-I didn't get too far with your engine today as I was working on that turbo manifold for that Mazda, but I can see plenty of horse power to be regained with a little effort
Wasn't Wolfie in the 12 minute zone???

I didn’t mean to disappoint you Chris, but I have been very busy and after all it has not even been a day yet. For what it's worth, I miss you too.
Here I am just trying to stir up a little fun and you are using me like a target.  Mr. "11 second and under" the influence of something. I think you have been sucking on that nitrous bottle before you even get it into your car. oops, did I say that But then not everyone can build a motor to over 500hp and put 4500 spirited miles on it..so far. sheeze, I did it again and do it themselves. not again.......I better stop here.

Heck, if we are going to correct the list, then let's at least put it in its proper order. I don't think I should be behind Wolfie. Isn't a 12.2 sec run faster than his 12 minute time 
We once tried to get everyone's best track times to start a record book for the club. I'll be more than happy to keep a spreadsheet if everyone wants to submit there best times. Of course times slips are needed for proof to be granted 11 second status. How about it boys?

You guys are the best.
No nitrous here, just had a plain Jane, under 500hp car to get in the 11's.
How much power or mph does it take to get into the 10's? Does anybody know?
P.S. Jerry, do you have the wheelie bars on order for the slow blue car?

I agree, spreadsheet should be started and handed out with the club directory. Somebody also had a good idea about 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 second club stickers.

I hear depending on your sticker status 10, 11,12,13,14, etc.... determines who gets the keys to the WCCC condo and on the other end of the spectrum, who has to buy beer in London!

I don't think that my 12 minute run should count against me!!! It was not my fault that my Crew Chief forgot to put the fuel into my tank before my run again.
I pay my crew big $$$$ to take care of all of the minor details before each run so you can just imagine how pee peed off I am about the oversight which now causes such great ridicule and embarrassment for me among my racing peers.
If anyone knows of a capable crew chief that is looking for a job, I have an opening coming up this season.>

Only the numbers count--the letters MIN. , SEC. don't enter the NUMBERS GAME a 12.0 is better than a 12.2 seconds, minutes, hours are irrelevant
the ability to cut a NUMBER is whats the primary concern
For instance in golf--------
Chris
After looking at your engine and seeing it----it doesn't take much HP to do what you did and yes I've already done lots of wheelie bar research--some of it goes back to the SEVENS and some of it fits with the long TITANIUM ones that are on the BLACK Mopar that we're trying to get in the sixes and over 200mph when NHRA comes to RT.66 this spring

I was thinking about helping out some of the NHRA Nitro guys(gals now also)
but could be inticed to help you--we might need protective gear for refueling and we'll need a tow vehicle to tow it back to the pits--I'll have Bob Brown start looking for a suitable vehicle that can easily be loaded into the rear of a Featherlite trailer and start a search for a Kenworth to pull it with--any preferences on interior lounge colors?

Now Sid, the only time you have looked gray to me is when you drink too much.
