I think your passenger side wheelie bar may be driving it a bit. Looks like its making real good power.
Re: Made a few shakedown runs
You might be right its tapping pretty hard on this pass

Randy,
You're doing good and I'm proud of ya! I know you have been quicker than the 5.21 with your old combo, so when you get this baby lined out, I'm looking for fours.
Not a cape, not a hen turkey,,,,,,,,,,, just a parachute

Grudge racers do not show video or times....

Pretty tough to grudge race a tube deal, or anything other than a SS tt5 these days.Lem Evans wrote:KY JELLY wrote:It ran 07 in that first video aint leaned on it yet

Pretty...tough or otherwise J.Y. is fast.
Re: Made a few shakedown runs
He's fast like all 25.1 cars are, and most people know it, and there's no point in grudge racing other 25.1 cars, that would be class racing. Definitely looks good though, a few adjustments and it should sprout wings.Lem Evans wrote:Barney wrote:Pretty tough to grudge race a tube deal, or anything other than a SS tt5 these days.Lem Evans wrote:KY JELLY wrote:It ran 07 in that first video aint leaned on it yet

Re: Made a few shakedown runs
So why could one not race a like car......does "grudge" mean one is looking to shoot fish in a barrel?
Re: Made a few shakedown runs
I guess you could, I would think that would be more like match racing, since both cars would be similar. There's generally a hustle involved in grudge racing, with two cars they both would be stark raving mad, and all involved would know it. But I suppose you could arrange something.Lem Evans wrote:So why could one not race a like car......does "grudge" mean one is looking to shoot fish in a barrel?

"There's generally a hustle involved in grudge racing"
Yep, just like pool hustlers etc. -----it's just a gambling thing. Racing is just the venue for it.

It's no different than hustling pool, or darts, or anything of that sort. It's gambling, no more, no less.IDT-572 wrote:Lem Evans wrote:So why could one not race a like car......does "grudge" mean one is looking to shoot fish in a barrel?[/quot.
