I'm guessing the guys who ran last year will be there again, Pure Heaven, Witch Doctor, Pure xxxx, of course Sullivan. I'm not sure about any of the guys who used to run in the IHRA.

On our car we'll have to unbolt 4 bolts and pull the wing off to get the body off.

Looks like Big Ray Gandy's car will be there with Jeff Utterback in the seat. I think he calls his Fiat "Black Sunshine."

No.
When I talked to Blake at the Finals in 2013 he said he didn't want transformers or alcohol cars. He wanted Nostalgia looking cars. It didn't work out that way.
Word on the street is if there are more Nostalgia style cars they will weed out the transformers and alcohol cars. Take that for what it's worth.
There are some people kicking around the idea of forming a Nostalgia Fuel Altered association to build a Nostalgia Fuel Altered class.

Its going to force a lot of guys to rework their cars.
There are cars out there hauling the mail without wings.

I spent the afternoon with a red Scotch Bright pad and WD40 scrubbing the chassis and fine tuning the tin work. Nothing like an afternoon with old Diamond P VHS tapes playing in the garage.

I understand George Doty is going to be there with the Godzilla. Looks like a mix of fuel altereds, alcohol cars, and transformers. We built our car to run against cars like yours so hopefully its a good weekend for real fuel altereds.

We're entered in the 2015 March Meet. Anyone else planning on racing there? My guess is some of the big names will be there.

Dropped the 1934 Ford grill off for custom paint work.
