Giants Despair Hillclimb July 11-12

Letting anyone know on the other side of the state I will be racing this weekend in Wilkes-Barre Pa. Torqueboxer is supposed to come out and lend his carb tuning expertise as well, and there will be a blown foxbody driven by a local guy in Street Mod as well. I currently hold the record in SM from back in 07 with my old notch that had a t-trim on a stock longblock, so I fully expect Dan to crush my record in his Paxton blown notch if it holds together. I hear a blown camaro will also be making an appearance. The best hill for spectating in my opinion, many cars enter turn 1 at well over 100 mph, and you can get closer than at any other hill, this is also the oldest running motorsports event in the country to my knowledge. Anyone that comes out, stop and say hi. I'll post a vid from '07 when I get home.

Thanks guys! With the utter lack of testing and preparation I will need. Haven't exactly had luck with this motor so far.

Video from 07, one of my slower runs in the trusty old notch. Launched this run in second gear, going into 1 at about 110.
