One cool thing from Drag Week is meeting new people. It's been a lot of fun to meet both people you see on the forums and others that have just come out to watch. I think everyday I met at least one person also who follow one of the FE forums, they just haven't signed up or posted. I get that, I used to lurk too. At Indy this year I met Ken A. He sent me a few pictures of my Shelby from when we were at Indy for Drag Week last year and he has sent me a few from this year. Ken sent me this one today of Jay at Indy. One thing I find neat about this picture is that Jay's car is nice and clear, the color "pops", but the burnout smoke kind of hazes the background.

That is a great pic! :)

That is a nice shot; thanks for posting that, Kevin. Yesterday at the track I ran 9.07 with poor traction and only a 1.36 60 foot, but noticed a lot of blowby coming out of the catch can attached to the dry sump tank. So I only made the one pass; time to pull the engine back down and see if the connecting rod crack has re-appeared, or if the oil ring rails have moved again. Also #1 plug looked pretty oily, so I'm guessing the blowby problem is coming from that cylinder. When I tear the engine down I will post the results...

Here's a picture I snapped from yesterday at Rock Falls of Jay and the gang doing some post run diagnosis of his pass.

Heard Royce is giving up on the Lima stuff as he grenaded his engine.That Mercury wagon needs the MEL anyway.
