Who Is Gonna Be @ Atco 4 The Pan Am Nationals

I would really like to go to the pan american nationals as I've heard from quite a few people it is THE best time they have had with the best of the best showing up there and racing. Only problem I've got is that it's bracket racing. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong but I would love to buy a weekend pass over there and see some of these guys break into the 6 second range. I guess I always thought that this was the place where racers could go all out to see what they where made of.

No sir, that is NOT the PuertoRican mentality, everybody gets a chance at the jackpot. If they were to race head to head, cars like Pica Racing might not even exist or be where they are at....

Most certainly this is the one not to miss this years line up brings all turbo field I will be there like every year. Last year the P.R. team took the first round personal and made kwick work of the remaning U.S.A. racers when the second came around and from the third round on it was all P.R. cars left in the race. This year No U.S.A. car will make it past the first round of eliminations.


stop by and check the slection of turbos @ the mike turboinc. both ask for hueng to get the club member discount.


Mike turbo inc. is Tthe proud turbo supliler for more than half of team P.R.

aint that the truth on the other hand STEIDEL RACING & CLUB MAN will be racing for TEAM USA and we all know how consistent those 2 cars are , i belive someone droped the ball in the SALINAS SPEEDWAY camp or didnt wanna take clubman with them because rummor has it CLUBMAN was 3 points ahead of some of the cars that are on the transporter and this might just bite them in the ***

Ken showing up will be a nice surpirse for the P.R. team. The best to find if he is going to be there is to call Tito chassis he might know. With Steidel, Clubman, (thank you Mr. Torres B.K.A. Sakura) the 2 cars that set Australia on fire when they showed up along with Ken, And the boys from Florida team USA has a good fighting chance. Rumor has it that the team from P.R. has made alot of ppl want to race this year. I mean can you imagine someone from team USA putting Pica on the trailer.WOW!

Speedway Politics. Clubman is a loyal racer to Salinas Steidel made some very promissing changes right before he loaded the car in the container so they better watch their *** for bites for real.

Yeah I hope more americans get into drag racing rotaries as much as you guys. I would love to see some good competition comming from this corner of the ring If Americans wheren't so much into thier v8's then maybe they would turn thier attention on the 13b! If I had money I would be there in a heart beat!
