Stocker Meets Winter

Winter has arrived! As you can see, project street legal stocker sits waiting for its turn in my garage. For now, two cars, two kids, 4 bicycles, and far too much gardening equipment are getting in the way. However, my bench and cabinet are ready for the short block buildup. If all goes as scheduled the new mill should be running by July.

This years racing season ended without issue or excitement. As a Fathers Day present I handed the keys over to my father for the funny car feature at my local track (SIR). He ran in the street legal class and made it to the semi finals. This was a great success considering he hadn't raced in over 30 years! It just goes to show that "old guys" can get it done :) My final race of the season ended abruptly with a first round loss. I was late and my opponent was not. However, on a positive note, given over the 200 hard runs on the motor it was still pulling consistent et's and mph. Next update will be pics of the shortblock as the machine shop called to say my pieces are ready to go.
