Posts: 855 08/02/08 11:25:01 GS Nats PR Director	Hi Otto, I have all the parts, except one, to build another GNX including 3 spare GNX ceramic turbos. I bought all these parts at a reasonable price. The big buck item is the complete rear suspension. Not interested in selling this stuff. But, I have lots of T/R parts & etc. that I will part with. If your ever in my area let me know & I'll meet you at my other shop. Some of the stuff you can have for free if you want it.. Please keep working on a Buick to race. The Nats. & Reynolds are not the same without you (& Tony G.) being there. Ron

I spoke to Tom at length about coming to the Nationals, but his energy level has not been that great since his stroke a few years ago. He said that he wished he could go but it just does not look like it at the moment. We also talked of a few other ideas that we will discuss at the California Hot Rod Reunion October 9-12 when we have more time to talk. I have also been in contact with Don and he to will be talking with me, also at the CHRR. We will be discussing the details of what I am asking for. I will try to get the rules for the class posted soon at our new web address. There are not many rules. It will mostly describe how this class will be run. As a side note we will be running our injected nailhead at the CHRR next month in NE1=7.60 index = first Buick Dragster since 1971 in competition. We have repaired what was broken at the Nationals, we also are now only 1340lbs with me in it. We will be running a Vertex Mag soon so we will not even need the big battery anymore..= no electronics on this car. I will be testing this Saturday so I will let you know how it goes MadCat Motorsports
