Hey guys/gals,

This morning I received a phone call from Doug Herbert informing me that I am one of the three
finalists drawn at yesterdays AC Delco Nationals.
They are flying me and my wife to the NHRA finals
in Pomona, Ca. for the final drawing on Nov 9th.

Check out Doug Herberts web site for more details.

I think I would need to rent a warehouse. :(

I know I couldn't afford to run it on nitro but
if I detuned it and ran it on alcohol it might
stay together for awhile.

Adam, you'll look like brothers.

For two days the finalists get to hang out with
Doug in his hospitality pit area so I'll tell him
you said hi. smile.gif

I'd pass out if I won that! I entered every member of my family to increase my chances...looks like I didn't work.

If you win it, do me a favor and fire it up at 7:00 in the morning!

I'm so excited for you Emil! I have an autographed piston sitting on my desk from his motor, I dont know what I'd do if I won the whole car. I'd try to fit it in my living room I think graemlins/thumbsup.gif

Just don't wear a Clay Millican shirt, lol. Doug is a good guy, a pal of mine was the engine guy for his car some years ago, and tired of being on the road and took a job with DEI. I met Doug then and thought he was a decent person.
