Morgan Lucas To Tune Himself

[DrRocket]

Gene Snow was the donor of the 4 sec. tuneup to Eddie Hill.

Thanks. I couldn't remember for the life of me.

All of this will be mute points come 2012.

I bet you 2012 will be almost a carbon copy of this season.

i think Virgil has a little bit more inside info than mast people on the 'mater.

 

[Nunz]

Virgil was that a "teaser" post?

Why? Is the plug getting pulled?

 

[Jeff]

I assume Virgil knows that the nitro engine of the future will be implemented in 12

Everybody will have to find a new baseline

 

[Treeshaker]

It isn't my place to make the release of information for other individuals or teams, but from what I gather both drivers will be driving top fuel next year, sponsorship about the same, the rest ???.

Some rules are in process of being changed, or subterfuge will be used to skirt them. To me it is a sad commentary on the future of our sport (these rule changes that are directed mainly at two specific teams). It is doubtful that there will be a public announcement about these changes, but you will see them implemented beginning with the Winternationals.

You guys take if from there.

 

[Jeff]

Virgil hears all the good stuff . . . well bad stuff in this case.

The redline version of the rule book is a pretty fun read sometimes, I assume that unless they tell those mysterious two teams "don't come to the line with more than 440 cu in" then we'll see it in the rulebook.

With Paul Smith leaving the King camp maybe he would be a good fit for Lucas?

 

[Rat]

I hope this does not mean spec TF and FC. I want a more evenly based category but if this is where it is going I take back my every word.

It's not spec now??

Link?

no because Larry Dixon And The Greek don't run the same e.t. yet

Seeing as how Morgan is a customer of AJ's I can understand completely him looking over their stuff. I know Alan isn't going to give up all his secrets, but if he saw something out of line he would certainly point Morgan in the right direction. As a matter of fact almost everybody in the pits would do the same thing. Nobody out there wants to watch a team blow up all their stuff, or struggle week after week.

Remember when KB came back out with the Monster Funny Car and was having trouble getting it to run? Austin Coil went over and helped him out. This has been going on for as long as Drag Racing has been going on.

Alan

That's why I love drag racing.

Word on the street is Lee Beard is gone from DSR racing. Maybe he will show up at Morgans?

Oh man. I would love to see that happen!!

 

[Treeshaker]

Maybe Morgan and Shawn will show up where Lee was.

I went to the race in Charlotte and the silly season has begun.

 

[jackass]

Saw a funny shirt at Concord... said "No i havent tuned a TF car before...but i did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night".....lol wished i could have got a picture of it....

 

[Topfuel386]

I was in Charlotte also working on a fuel car. I heard CM will be back full time in a dsr car next year.
