S/SS @ Sonoma

Congrats to one of our own here at the SCR! Barry Polley (stk758) had a good showing at the NHRA/Autolite Nats. last weekend in Sonoma, CA. He qualified 16th out of 50+ cars (4th quickest qualifying time of the event), and was just shy of being 1 second under the index! It's a new combo, and he's still sorting it out, so it can only get better from here!!

Here's a good shot of his A/SA Camaro reaching for the clouds (check out the sYc decal on the quarter panel!): Wheels up, baby!

Amen to the drag racers!

I bet he is running a STOCK spec cam. No NOS for him.....

Those class racers really know their stuff...I could read their tech info all day long!

As for his cam, well, at least the lift is the stock spec!

Those guys do know their stuff! The cam, yes stock lift..... 15 minute duration time.

May be coming out to St.Louis with Benny Pfeiffer. Need to see the big match race, or races.

Cool...maybe we can rehash the whole cam thing over a cold one!

Why not!

Thank you for the support! We are proud to run the SYC decal and it stirred up lots of interests. Sonoma was hard on headers, core support,oil pan and front end alignment. Oh yea, and the wallet! BUT WHAT A BLAST TO DRIVE!!! We are working on the landings now. As for the cam, no big deal, less than .520 as per the rules and a 109 centerline. It likes RPM= 7500 in the traps and 64-6800 shifts. Watson Racing wants me to keep the rest of the #s for a bit. I am looking for good set of stock rec port 291 or 840 heads, trying to build a spare. Again , thank you for your support and I am sure we will have more air time soon with softer landings I hope.

Stock, Super Stock, and Comp are really the only thing left in my opinion! You got my support here in DIV.1. Keep up the good work.
