J178REDFloyd take care of yourself, hoping you get better soon buddy must be waiting for you!
HAVE THEY CALLED US YET ? THEY HAVE!!!

ChuckTFloyd, I hope you're on the mend and the docs have you figured out quickly.
I agree with Fern, most people don't drink enough water. Yes, other drinks count some, but water is the antifreeze for your body. Your whole system runs much better.
Fern, I had no chance of getting Philbilly's perfect package, or inside of Jamie's 7 pack. That's awesome you guys put that together.
No racing for me for another couple of weeks, juniors this weekend, trucks next weekend. I'll take the break, maybe I can make a charge here in the last 2 points days and qualify for IHRA bracket finals, which hopefully are still happening.

ferndaleflyerBeen 3 days Floyd, how you doin?

Floyd StaggsFeen
Still waiting.

ferndaleflyerHope they get you fixed soon. Spent the morning taking out my trans & converter. Greg at FTI thinks my converter is trying to leave town so will try this other one I have then send my original in for a fixing up. Sure does seem to take a lot longer than it used to. It also looks like my flywheel might be cracked, maybe! Will check that later as I am done for the day. You get well Floyd your puppy needs you at home.

ferndaleflyerAnother 4 days have gone by Floyd---sure would be good to hear from you. Hopeyou are mending.
August 16, 2022, 07:49 PM
ChuckTHowdy all. Damn Floyd, hope they got you on the mend now. Best wishes for better health for you.
Fern, what flexplate do you run? In the 69, I have a Mondello piece (very nice and worth the money in my opinion), and I can't tell what came on the 81. I'll find out this offseason.
Hoping for good weather this weekend. It's Night Of Fire, jet dragsters and funny cars, Bob Motz, Joe Morrison's TF car, and fireworks in addition to our next to last points day. The track needs a good spectator crowd, and I need to go some rounds at the least.

ferndaleflyerChuck not sure about the flex plate as the SFI one I just took out is cracked and no identifying marks on it. Engine builder says its a waste of money on our slow cars. I forget the name he suggests but it is made in USA. I have to get a new one.
