A Question for Ricky Brooks...

[ancrdave]

Can I run this car in the Sportsman class at Auburndale and Desoto? It's an old Patrick Thomas car but he never could get it to fly the way he wanted...

I heard it had a bad aero-push.

Note also that the car preceded Jim Hall's Chaparral 2J by a number of years.

The Chaparral was not legal long...

[Ricky Brooks]

Yes please bring it.lol

[Boneman]

The decklid is too tall, the other drivers would whine.

[OldSchool+]

Dude, you can see through the car (so we know it is safe).

Didja notice the wax hermetically sealing the crate lycoming?

[Truck84]

Can't be a sportsman, it's not a crate motor.

[OldSchool+]

er... it's out of the crate and bolted onto the Darge...

Btw, per Lycoming, the engine should be good for 2000 hours (!) between rebuilds.

I think that is about half the time the 2015 Championship Chevy went without a rebuild!
