I hear you, the 396 Camaro are everywhere in the Stock Eliminator classes. I figured you guys at Ford had a Thunderbolt buried out in the desert and it would show up one day.  |

| The Thunderbolt wouldn't fit into a stock class until a couple of years ago, now you could run one in the AA/S, but mucho dinero to build one, there are a couple running SS/B and very competitive. Ray Paquet runs one out Michigan, way cool car. |

Hey DT St George is a nice little town, and depending on which end you live, you could be at the Vegas track in an hour and half. Have the luxury of 2 tracks.....if ya could afford it........  |

Don't know, never been in the Air Force. Just pondering what would make a bell housing more effective. Weight, pivot point...etc  |

The bell housing, it is a story in itself, but basically you get rid of the C6 trans and install a C4, the trans is were the ET reduction came from. The bell housing is a reproduction of the.....ummmm.....elusive Canadian errr um.....C4 that was installed behind the FE Ford Canadian uh.....taxi cabs! yeah thats it!
Mesquite would work, maybe you could hook up with Randy Black for a little casino money sponsorship? I think he still has one or two open...... |

I like that answer, your Jon Lovitz routine is spot-on. I will see Randy Black at the 40th reunion in May. I would think that the gaming business is waaay down. I understand the Edgewater has a drive-through service for the ole folks.  |

I guess that this is proof-positive that a small town can support a race track. |
