Seems to be Bob Dally. All I could find was Facebook BS which I don't understand how to deal with

Although I did find this

I've always loved the underdogs / dark horses. Even though it's a Ford, there's a really cool pickup -- one of those Ford unibody pickups with a Y block that did 147 or so................

When you get done ooglin' the "cover shot............."

Tim Mcmaster's Y Block, he calls the truck "Jake" Just think for a moment pushing that box through the air at nearly 150

anyone else know this car?

I don't know that car, but at the Ohio Mile ECTA events I have seen a propayne powered /6 Dart Swinger. I'm hoping to get my Barracuda done by the Spring and run it there next year.

Sure would be interesting to see that Guzzi Mark's Valient run down the salt. Has anyone heard how he's doing?

[woody30]

they wont let him run it due to all the mods he has done, dosn't fit in any classes, at least thats what i thought mark said... i need to call him and see how he is doing.

I know the safety mods are stringent. That may be the reason.

i dont think it was so much that, he runs/crews bike's out there. he would just have to basically start over on his car.

Dart 4forte: Good to know.
