Very cool! Finally, another slant 6 rail car. I think we have been waiting 5 years after someone said "next season there will be 5 new Slant 6 rail cars running". Some open records to gobble up in AA weight class, Fopar!

Hopefully I can see it run at Woodburn in August...

Fopar, are your intakes custom made?


Do you have one on the brown car and one on the rail?

Greg; the brown car has a 4 barrel, my red 63 Dart has 6 Mikuni carbs, and the rail also has Mikuni carbs. I like to tell people you order the manifold from Summit, but yes they are custom built for each vehicle by myself.

It looks like I can't make it again. The grapes and the wine are keeping me busy. It sounds like I'm going to miss some cool stuff. Hopefully some video will be shot and photos will be taken.

The Toad can't come out to play this time,

Fopar, have you had the dragster out yet? Don't recall seeing anything about it being completed.
Ceej, how is your digger coming along?

Charrlie, Ceej lies I have only put 2 light runs on it (never got out of first) no wheels up. I am going to the Friday drags to get some more advanced runs prior to the Sat. Inline/Flathead race. I have a GoPro camera mounted for some video of the runs both Fri & Sat.

Ceej, I didn't think you would remember about the nitro bike. Anita still will not go to the drags with me and that was over about 50 years ago. She didn't like to see the front forks level with the ground all the way through first. :shock: :oops: :lol: :lol:
