Update March 4: As you know  we swallowed a valve at the last set of races-was very disappointing at the time but better to happen then-----than at the first set next June!!! We are going to bore it 30 over and adding a set of TRW flat top pistons with a set of 366 rods and a pair of 1970's 454 steel heads.The "peanut" heads will become paper weights (if they're lucky).The crank is good-std-std.
This is all that is planned for this season and hopefully it stays that way.

Original entry below
 Enclosed is a picture of my 1967 Chevy II.  I would love to have it viewed in the reader's ride section.  Car was restored by myself and friends just this past two years.  I ran it in the Miramichi this past summer and got the kinks out.  Hope to make it to Cape Breton next summer.  Car is a 67 Chevy II, two door hard-top.
 I run a 355 sbc, with a 400 turbo trans, 4200 stall converter.  9" Ford with full
spool and 514 Richmond gears.  Best E.T. 11.27 at 121 mph.  In Moncton at the ADRA awards, I took home the trophy for Competition Vehicle of the year for
2002.  I view your website every evening, and thoroughly enjoy it, all the way from Westfield, New Brunswick.  Keep up the good work.
  Thank you - Peter Hobart,Hobart Racing

This is my 1979 Malibu 3600 pound street car. I was at your track(Cape Breton Dragway) this summer and had a ball. The Malibu has a 496 cube BBC with steel GM heads, Lunati roller cam, Edelbrock Super Victor intake with a 1050 Dominator. I went to Super Chevy in Epping N.H. and went to the third round.  Raced at Mirmichi 3 times and at Raceway Park PEI  all summer. Over the winter I'm planning on lightening up the car a little for next year and updating the brakes.
