I know that some us racer do not like to see cars going . But we need some good race cars in europe and you can be shure it got a good home and will be raced a lot..
As i menitioned we are very happy that we have now 2 of the nicest cars ever built in my opinion - Vanderhorst super street and skaggs car. For me it is still the car Andy Costello raced because i have it in good memory . He was a very nice and funny guy

I know i started a very hard heir  Smiley but it will get faster each year that is for shure but i will keep it prostock legal to see the difference to the us racer. I saw it first in 1992 . i took this picture at phöenix bugorama . I was watching out for a chassis car for a longer time but only for Ron Lummus chassis . those are still the best in my opinion. this mild steel chassis i like most .
I also saw Andy racing it

Had a nice dynosession today with the "smaller-mag case" engine. I checked the ignition,gearbox,fuel system. Everything is ok.  It made very good 280 hp . pulls strong from 3000 up ..
Ready for Bitburg

I think Ben Pada owned that car, and Andy ran his drivetrain in it at the time... I believe it was the last car he drove before he passed away in 2001... Sad Cry

As i said this is the spare engine. when you think about that the guys in the us raced those engines 20 years back .... Now the small super stock engines make power close to it. First i want to go save with the car,next year i will try to go over 300 with the other engine

That 10.2 is impressive 1st time out in a new car,maybe not using the wheeliebars helped Grin

When do you plan on racing next?
