Bracket money man bracket money. Plus having a doubles partner in nationals that shot 816 and helped us get a nice check from them is helping out. It's really nice that bowling is paying for majority of all my work done to the car. lol

I wish I had the time to do it. AMF is having an all you can bowl for $5 bucks tomorrow. lol.
When I bowled Nationals, my doubles partner was usually my Dad who had the tendancy to throw me in the river missing single pin spares getting careless. Pissed me off to no end.

The answer I got was," price to be determined but will be competitive with current blower pricing". So, that could be from $4k for vortech/paxton to $7k for whipple/kennbell. lol.

Yes sir. Kevin and I sat in the audience for a short bit while they were doing some filming. They had just pushed the car back in from paint.

The only replacement for both is rpm's.  and even then it's not as good imo.
