Ok Sarge....story time. In all your years as a DKP 1 guy, who was it that you remember as being the guy who had the fearless throttle foot? Which guy could never resist the inevitable smokeshow leaving the Pickwick? Or could never use "better judgment" when it came to a good match up on the street? You know, the guy that would be the first to light 'em up, who would extend the front shocks leaving every intersection. The guy that thought every stoplight was a christmas tree?
That guy. Was it you? Grin

Sarge, did the police ever show up at the old clubhouse? They could probably hear all the commotion from an open window at the police station.

On the second holley regulator......supposed to be the 4psi but fluctuates between 0 and 7depending on it,s mood.....thinking of ditching it and going with pete roberts suggestion of cb rotary and no regulator,hope the new reg fixes it for now. Big meet this weekend,13 greenhearts cars and a handfull of guest cars and 18 DAS cars over from Belgium,should be some good heads up.Track is prepped for net weeks top fuel finals,so the times(and gearboxes Shocked) could be tumbling.
Here,s the motor now


And with the T bars fitted(cant remember If I already posted this...but hey f**k it...I'm old I'm allowed to forget shit)
