SCE and Superformance both make good gaskets. I agree with what others said about no gaskets on the china walls.

If you're running at Gainesville it will get very humid during the summer months. You'll need to adjust accordingly. I ran there back in the '78-81 time frame when I stationed in Jacksonville with the Navy.

Dan The Man, his epic search for that 'special' A body is a wonder to behold....

I found Joe Wood, Scott Taylor, Jeff Lutz and Randy Johnson (before he left the circuit) to be the friendliest. Heck, Johnson talked to me for half an hour 3 years ago at the Epping NPK event, showed me his Dart that he was running and wanted to know all about my 72 Dart bracket car that I was...

I have been to two at New England Dragway. There's only one place to get tickets for an NPK event and that's at the foat.com. There are different ticket levels from general admission to VIP seating. This year they have what they call the Ultimate Rockstar ticket package which provides a...

Outstanding!!!

The two independent tracks up here in Maine will let belts go for 5 years if they are in good shape with no visible signs of damage.

100% agree, and even though my Arrow hasn't hit 150mph with me driving it yet, it's close enough to that mark that I went ahead and got a head/neck restraint device for this season.

I've thought about getting one as well. I have a friend that races in a different class than I do, and he uses a weather station/ET predictor every round he runs. Last season I was heading into the semis and I was stumped as what to dial as I could feel the air changing. So my friend says...

Last Thursday up here in the frozen tundra of Maine we were getting dumped on by a late season storm. Got 14 inches of snow at my place. Today it's beautiful clear skies and 60 degrees. Looks like spring has finally decided to show up. New England Dragway was going to open up this past...

Camrie was back at the track on Sunday for the finals. TV guy asked her what happened and she said she has no idea and that she didn't remember the accident. Makes me worried that she has some kind of head trauma as well.

Being a fan of the Street Outlaws show the first time Cali Nate appeared on the show I thought he was nothing but another big mouth trash talker but then his performance behind the wheel justified the trash talk. In later appearances he was shown more helping other racers set up and tune their...

Cali Nate appeared in some of the Fastest in America and Mega Cash Days shows. He wasn't part of the regular Street Outlaws group.

up here in the frozen tundra of Maine we're getting hammered by a Nor'easter, snowing to beat the band, wind howling and power out everywhere...

Underwater hull looks pretty good all things considered.
