Hey everyone, just been working a lot and just got back from vacation cruise.
Before we left this time we did RPDE at Daytona again, 167mph this time, 20 laps, the instructor kept looking over and adjusting the cars power, since I had done it before I was going full out, I think he was trying to keep me under 170mph.
We went to Don Garlits museum in Ocala too. That place is incredible, all the cars we watched race growing up are there, Connie's Bounty Hunter, Jungle Jims car, The Blue Max, Snake and Mongoose cars, all the Swamp Rats, The Sidewinder and the Wynns Liner, Shirleys 1982 car and the Last Pass car.
He has a 300 or so classic car museum, I didn't know he was into Fords too, He has a Granatelli Dodge with a Paxton supercharger on it, and other stuff.
He has a Engine room with a ton of stuff, Smokey Yunick tuned stuff, more blown Hemis I have ever seen in one place and 2 SOHC 427s, One in a case and the other in one of Katillas Bounty Hunters. Flatheads everywhere and a whole wall of flat head intake set ups. And in one corner a ton of intakes induction stuff.
We stayed in Daytona Beach, only a few blocks from where Smokey Yunick's shop was, but there is nothing left of it.
here are some pics, full album on the link
