Oddly enough, I didn't have a burp, it just sort of went away. It was at 8200 and 130mph, when I went thru the traps it just started shaking like crazy and I could see all the track safety people running up to the barrier watching me go by. It was at that point I figured something was wrong. There was so much smoke, they all thought I was on fire! What I didn't know was, I was dumping oil and water all over the place and somehow it didn't get under my tires! As soon as I came to a stop, the safety crew was right at my door. If there was a fire, it would have been taken care of pretty quickly. It took them about 10 minutes to clean up my mess, and it was back to racing.

Now, as far as a replacement motor, and there will be one, if I go with MORE cubic inches I think I'll have to do some chassis work. My chassis guy is gonna take a peek at it and see if it will hold up to more. I like Prozzz suggestion though. I see Sonny's has a nice motor on sale.....hmmmm...... 762" and $56K, hmmmmm... we'll see......
