Chevelle at Pacific Raceways May 17th 2014

Unfortunately this was our only hit this Saturday, as in the 2nd session of time runs our old BG fuel pump started leaking bad on the starting line:

Later that afternoon, Guy Johnston was not hurt but his beautiful ’55 was destroyed when a transmission cooler line reportedly failed, oiling his right rear tire:

Update May 24th 2014:

Today we installed the new MagnaFlow fuel pump with a return line to the fuel cell. The Chevelle is ready to hit the strip again!
