New ignition box. New center section.
Will be busy on warm days lol

Got any pics to post or at least a description of the car?

1969 Chevelle tube chassis car
565 big block
I don’t know how to post a picture lol

I changed my avatar to it
Not the greatest but you get the idea.

Well I decided to add one of the House of Payne Ultimate Big Dog 10pitch starters to compliment the 139 tooth ATI flex plate. I am hoping it spins over like it's turning a 4 cylinder street engine. That's about how much power I make anyway. LOL

Finally signed papers last week for building a new inTech trailer I was looking at back in January 2025.

That’s awesome Mark. I’m really happy for you.

I can update my winter plan now. Knocked the dust off my racin suit and made passes earlier this month. Even won a round. New plan is to replace all polylocks on my stud girdle. Been chasing a tempermental lash issue since getting the engine running months ago. Same rocker each time. Just found the lock boogered up on the face contacting the rocker trunion. Assuming someone prior to me getting this car either ran it way loose and bounced it around or maybe overtightened it for a while??? Either way, the fix is coming soon. Put a couple turns of base pressure in clutch as well. Just got trailer back from replacing a ramp hinge. Everything appears on the way to being A-OK with my little racin operation for now, so planning to run again Feb 7, weather permitting. Hope y'alls winter plans are working out in your favor.

We have his 2022 American Dragster in our shop now installing the combination.

As far as a DRR Build, I'm going "Old School" and will be hoping back into the door car side for the first time in about 33 years! I can't wait to show ya'll what we will be doing.

Shameless plug - Watch for our 12 Days of Christmas Sale on Drag Race Solutions to begin this Sunday! Also DRR Gear can be purchased along with your parts on the same site now.

Merry Christmas to all,

Don't you think it is about time you tell us what you are building with pictures?

Didn't really have open heart bypass surgery in my plans, but here we go. Tuesday check in.
Glad I didn't dismantle the car for anything.
Hope to be back in the car in April.
