I was wondering if we were going to be racing at slick stock? and what are the rules.... size, weight, etc....

We have two very strict valve cover racing rules at SS.
You have one - you get to race it.
Oh BTW, rule #2 - laughter is involved.

I think the only big rule is that it can't harm the track... That was the list of rules at Slick Stock 3 in Kansas City in '08.

157 till Slick Stock !!!!!!!!!!!!!

We plan on brining back to Slick stock. You might need to tweak the axles some. They love playing with that until I put it on the shelf so I would survie until ss10.

Now if you want it back that will be between you and them. I don't think they will have any problem with it but you will have to talk with them. :lol:

Your right Fred they are fiesty little buggers, but they are two years older now. Alan your gonna have a challange on your hands.

I know!, I`ll form a team called the 351 Cleveland breather cap down hill racers!, and get them to race it for me!

Chris, is " little Buggers" a typical American term? :lol:

Alan good luck on that one, mate! I will be bringing the BIG cover back with me, but also plan to build a couple more racers to run. One is a 6 cover and the other is off a Y-block. Adds a little diversity to it. See ya there. TR
