Even though they got a little screwed out of that deal, they still got some nice exposure from that article.

Some of the rules......... most HP/CI was the winner, $5,500 parts budget (sort of), had to make 3 pulls to 7,000 rpm to qualify the engine with no upper rpm limit. Then 3 scored pulls to 7,000 rpm minimum.

I was standing with Comp's Billy Godbold while one engine was pulling 7,800-8,000 rpm and he said, "Can you hear that valve train screaming in protest? It's dying." Sure enough, very quickly it broke a rocker shaft and it's day ended. However, it was the winnah!

The lead picture here has my son Cody (the head porter) on the left and my son Tay (the "Gorilla Biscuit") on the right.
