| That is cool. https://postimg.cc/gallery/np3zpruo/"Dunning-Kruger Effect" -a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge. Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue. 4X NE2 CHAMPION. 2020 TDRA NE2 Champion |

| I purposely built that car for Super Gas. We did run it in Super Street some once we got the Geo Storm done. it was a mean piece there also. Bolted 300 lbs in front of the rear tires and another 100 in the rear to make weight. It had a 377 small block. I traded it to Jeff Devey for the Aqua Corvette Roadster that Ed Destaute now has. I sold it to the guy in Washington. He won some with it and sold it to Ed. Devey put a Big Block in it, ran it for a while then sold it to John Brazeau who won a bunch with it. Brazeau sold it to Mark Tyke who I think put a bigger big block in it, lol. Tyke's wife was driving it in SLC and rolled it at the finish line and spent a month or so in the hospital. The car was totaled and I'm pretty sure went to the scrap yard. The car was ahead of it's time. I remember the first time Sheldon Gecker saw it disassembled. He asked if it was previously a comp car. Lot's of memories with it |

| Yup. Gecker is living in Arizona. Still doing transmission rebuilds on a part time basis. Never forget when he won his second national championship. Wasn't even in the top 10. The last S/G race was in Phoenix and he needed it to be an 8 round race. There were over 128 cars in S/G and he won it. One of the best racers out there.

If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong.
