It was great, 31 cars running, weather decent, etc.

It was a good showing of 4 bangers, speedsters, a couple of sprint cars, Great American Race cars, roadsters, coupes, and "T"'s "A" and "B" engined cars overheads and flatheads. We ran 8.8 with a "repop" Aluminum Winfield Crows foot on the engine, not bad considering the driver had never seen the car before yesterday morning.

Red (It looks orange but I paid for Red) narrowed "T" body with a small stainless fuel tank (deicer tank from a WW2 B24 liberator) polished quick change, pair of Winfield BB side drafts sticking out on passenger side. I think my wife took a photo. I'll try to post one of the engine. Oops, the wife had one of the car!

Thank you Jim! I think it should be known that you supplied the camshaft.
