  • BangShift folks in Southern California

    Cruising Grand. This Aug 5th Friday in Escondido, they block off a 4 lane street for just the T-buckets. We as a group will arrive Escondido at 4:00 PM and start taking our places. If anyone approaches me (gray beard and pony tail), and says they drive a stick and wants to go for a short ride in the Track-T, we will do just that. These pictures will help you find me or the Track-T. As in the past, I'll probably be the only one with a covered engine and manual transmission.

      That is the 1st weekend of November, and yes was there last Nov and that was my last dyno pull of 2010




      This was in Tombstone, and I thought it was a cool pic to take, blown sbc, blown Ford, and blown Mopar, all lined up like ducks, just needed a long lens to compress the shot for the Mopar to get equal billing.




      This is one bouncy road in Bisbee, Arizona where the 1st wave of killer bees crossed over from Mexico

            The pony tail is a constant effort for "Locks for Love", 26" = a double donation. The pic on the ferry was last week at Mountain Home, Arkansas, the BucketHead Bash, or the Sturgis for buckets.

                Hmmmm....wonder if I talked to you? I do recall talking to a guy with a manual trans in his car, over by the Hastings/Schlotzkys parking lot.....

                The dyno belongs to my friend Chris, he put on the run, I think. He also has the blown mopar powered bucket in the back of this pic

                  Your right, we did talk, good memory. Chris, the owner of the dyno turned in the largest number with his blown Mopar. An older gentleman with a self imposed throttle linkage restriction on a $16K crate motor turned the 2nd highest number, and I pulled the 3rd, but 1st in torque.

                  Here he is laying down the biggest number.
