Follow along to keep up to date with the progress of our car.

Update:

09-17-09 - Well sorry for the delay in updating.  No reason, just lazy.  Since the last update, we had another race on 8/31.  The race went really good for us.  It had rained pretty hard the day before, so the track decided to only race 1/8 mile, which was fine with me but we couldn't really see if our new tune-up did the trick or not.  I guess we'll have to wait until next time.  Check out the BelAir Video's Page for our 3 runs from that race.  Also check the 2009 Season page for some great pictures.  Our next and final race of the 2009 season is on September 27.  It's going to be a good one so we hope to see some new faces out there.  Stay tuned for more updates.

08-03-09 - Another month gone, another race in the books.  Actually, since the last update, we've had 2 races.  the first was on 6/13 for the Funnycars Under The Stars show.  We had a great time and made a couple of passes at 8.13 and change.  The last race was 7/26 and that one didn't go so well.  We made  total of 4 trips up to the line but were only successful in making 2 full passes.  The last of which we burnt the #6 piston pretty bad.  After assessing the damage, we may have just bought our last race ticket for the year, but it is still up in the air.  Check out the BelAir Video's Page for 2 of the in-car camera shots.  Also check out the 2009 Season Page for some stills.  We're not quite sure what the future of 2009 holds, but we hope to be back out sooner than later.

06-02-09 - A quick update coming at you.  We had another race weekend and the first of the 5 nostalgia events at New England Dragway.  The turnout for the race and the car show was awesome.  The weather started out really good but turned to wetness around 3pm.  This brought a soggy end to our day but not before we got in a partial pass.  Unfortunately the throttle cable came out of it's bracket about 330' after launch and I had to abort.  The car left really good and straight though, so that was promising.  Check out the BelAir Video's Page for the coverage of that run.  Also check the 2009 Season Page for updated photos.  We will be making an appearance at the upcoming Nantasket Beach Car Show in Hull, MA on June 14.  Check the 2009 Season Page for the website and information.  Our next race will be in July so we have some time to relax and enjoy the warming temperatures.  See you all soon.

05-19-09 - It's official, our 2009 racing season has begun!  Our first outing was this past weekend.  We had a test and tune session to get the cob webs off and knock the rust off.  All in all it was a great weekend and I personally ran a new best ET and speed of 8.19 @ 167.  We got some good data and we feel we'll be ready to lay down some good passes next time out.  Check the Belair Videos Page for coverage of the days runs.  Also check out the 2009 Season Page for the new sponsor decals.  It was great to meet some new faces and we look forward to seeing you at our next race on 5/31.

02-28-09 - Well...Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and everything else since our last update.  Unfortunately for us, weather cut our 08 season short, so August 27th was in fact our last race of the year.  Our original plans were to take 2009 off due to budget constraints, but thanks to our new sponsors Then and Now Automotive (Weymouth, MA)  and Milton machine (Middleboro, MA) we are back at it!  It will be a limited season with only 4 races, but it is better than nothing.  Check out the 2009 Season Page for the dates.  This year should be a good one with myself (the son) back behind the wheel.  We hope to see you all this year and we look forward to a safe and fun 2009 season!

08-27-08 - Another weekend in the books for us.  As some of you may know, we had a different driver in the car for this last race.  None other than myself, Mike (the son).  It's been a long time coming but I finally got to sit behind the wheel of the yellow beast.  It was a very exciting experience for me and after 3 short license passes, I had my first full quarter mile pass which netted me an 8.32 @ 165 (on one stage of nitrous!).  We unfortunately had a small mechanical failure which prevented us from racing on Sunday, but it is all fixed now and we're (me especially) ready to get back at it.  There are only a couple more race dates scheduled for our 2008 season so we hope that you can come out and enjoy them with us.  Check the Belair Videos Page for all of my passes as well as the 2008 Season Page for pictures from Saturday.  Stay tuned for more updates. 

08-15-08 - Well we've finally done it!!!  On August 9, 2008, we ran our first ever 7 second pass!!!  7.95 @ 171 was the number and man was it a good one.  It was such a relief to get that run out of the way.  It really made all the hard work worth it.  Check out the Belair Videos page for both of our runs that day.  Also, check in at our message board to give a congratulations if you should choose to.  Our next outing will be on August 23rd and 24th and there will be a new face behind the wheel.  To find out who, you will just have to show up.  See you there!!

07-29-08 - Another update coming at ya.  We had a race this past weekend in which we made 2 more successful passes.  They weren't record setting, but still good. An 8.36 @ 176 followed by an 8.25 @ 167.  Our York, PA trip was cut short by rain so there aren't any runs to tell you about from that.  Our next race is scheduled for August 9 so we hope to see some of you out there.  I will be adding the videos from this past weekend so check back soon.

06-16-08 - Just a quick update for you.  We've got yet another race under our belts.  Unfortunately, this one didn't end on a high note.  After a tire shaking first pass which lead to our best MPH of 178, our second pass turned out to be a crapper.  We burnt #6 piston which brought our day to a halt.  It isn't as bad as it seems, luckily we have the parts to fix it up and we'll be back in shape in no time.  Check out the Engine Destruction page for pictures of the carnage.  Also check the Bel Air Videos page for this past weekends passes.  Our next race is scheduled for the weekend of July 11 and it will be down in PA.  Check the 2008 Season page for more info on that.  We hope to see some of you down there.

06-04-08 - Another update from Casella Racing headquarters.  Well we've had 2 races since our last update and for the most part they were all that we could expect.  The first race on April 19 gave us three passes, of which the first one was really only good solid pass.  Electrical gremlins haunted us for the 2nd and third passes.  This past weekend (June 1) was our second race of the year and so far, it was the best one in our history.  We made 2 passes, the second of which gave us our new best ET and speed (8.008 @ 172.98).  Oh so close to that magic 7 second run.  We're confident that our next outing, scheduled for June 14, will bring us our best runs to date.  Check out the Bel Air Videos Page for our most recent runs.  Check back soon for more updates!

04-02-08 - A major update for the followers of this website and our team!  Below is a press release done for us by, in our opinion, one of the best motorsports journalists/track announcers on the planet today.....none other than Brian Lohnes.  This release is what is going to make this season the best one yet.  Enjoy the read and you'll be hearing from us VERY soon!!

Middleboro, Mass -- Mike Casella, owner and president of Casella Racing is proud to announce that legendary door slammer pilot Wally Bell will be making a comeback of sorts with the Casella Racing team in an advisory role. Bell will aid the team in tuning their hot rod throughout the 2008 season.

"Wally has been a great friend to me and has helped immensely in guiding me through the process of learning this car," Casella said. "This thing is really a beast. It's a 707 inch motor on two stages of nitrous swaddled in just about the most massive body you're going to find on any race track anywhere. To have a guy like Wally, now expanding his role with our team is really an honor."

The 7-second 1960 Chevy is known around New England for its wild, tail dragging performances. It's also the world's quickest 1960 Chevy Bel-Air, for those of you scoring at home.

The decision to reach out to Bell and invite him deeper into the operation was an easy one for Casella. "As you can see by the car, we love to perform and give people a good show. We thought that there really wouldn't be a better show than to have one of the true legends and pioneers of door slammer racing back at the track, helping us wow the fans with the big yellow Chevy's performance."

With a racing history that includes stints behind the wheel of such machinery as Z-11 Chevrolets, 427 powered Comets, Hemi-Roadrunners, and a host of infamous Pro-Mods, Bell is the epitome of a seasoned veteran. All of his Pro Mod cars sported nitrous, thus his expertise and ability to aid Casella during the season with the big yellow Chevrolet.

Bell's last laps in competition came during the 2001 season and he was very excited at the prospect of tuning a car once again. "When I brought the ideal to Wally, he was really pumped," Casella said. "He is very excited to be at the track again to help tune a car. The guy is truly one of my heroes and a hero to a lot of the door slammer guys out here. I remember his Chevelle from the height of the Super Chevy Show days as well as his time on the United States Super Circuit barnstorming with guys like Animal Jim and Rob Vandergriff."

As the racing season in the Northeast rapidly approaches, the big yellow Bel-Air is ready to rumble, twist, and shout its way into the 7's for the crowds it will run in front of, from Maine to Pennsylvania. "There aren't many chances in life to work closely with someone you admire," Casella said. "I'm just over the moon that Wally Bell is going to be involved with this car. The fans are in for one heck of a show"

01-22-08 - Welcome to 2008.  This year should be a good one.  We've done a little work in the off season such as a new torque converter as well as some minor repairs to the motor.  Things are looking up as the season gets closer and we really look forward to making some clean, FAST passes.  Check out the 2008 Season page for our scheduled events for this year.  Stay tuned for updates as they happen.

10-23-07 - Well where do I begin, or should I say end?  Our season has come to a close.  I guess it wasn't the most productive season on the books, but I think we had fun and learned some things along the way.  Between water leaks and other little gremlins, our last couple of races were pretty much a wash.  No real results to report.  Our season ended with a cracked cylinder head which wasn't really the way we wanted it to end, but I guess you can't choose when that stuff is going to happen.  I do believe things will be fixed and you should see us make another run at it next year.  So for now, into hibernation we go for the winter.  You can still keep up with us on our message board by going to the home page and clicking on the link.  There is always a lot going on in there.  Thanks for following along this season, I hope you enjoyed our updates (few as they were).  Stay tuned for more updates as they happen.

08-29-07 - Wow, has it been almost 3 months??  Well sorry for the delay in updates but there really hasn't been too much going on over the last couple of months.  We took a little time away to try and catch up on things and finally had a chance to get back out this past weekend.  What a weekend it was!  We won our first trophy and set a new best ET and speed for the car.  You can check out our new videos on the Bel Air Videos Page.  Our next outing is scheduled for Sept. 8 and it should be a good one.  We hope to see some of you there.

06-09-07 - Well unfortunately for us, mother nature has decided that racing was not on the agenda for this weekend.  Due to the heavy rain and thunderstorms, we will not be making the trek north.  We do however have our first race of the year under our belts.  Last weekend was our first outing of the year and it was a decent one.  We didn't light the world on fire or set any records, but we didn't break anything and we came away with a good game plan for the rest of the season.  Check the 2007 Season Page for pictures from the day and also check the Belair Videos Page for our 3 passes.  One other update to the site (a little late, but better than never) is on The Rebuild page.  Our next race will be in Eddyville, IA for the 2nd annual Draglist Nationals.  We hope to see all of our Midwest fans out there and can't wait to rip up some corn fields!!

05-15-07 - Just a quick update for today.  Check out The Rebuild page for more updated photos of progress.  This coming weekend will be a major milestone for us this year.  Hopefully the car will be completely wired and ready to fire.  There is a long list of things that need to be completed, but I'm sure we'll get most of them out of the way.  Stay tuned...

05-08-07 - The car has returned from the paint shop (Mike's Garage).  Things came out just as we expected, awesome!  Check out The Rebuild page for more pictures of that.  So now the process of putting things back to where they go begins.  We are going to thrash to make the May 26, 27 races.  It may seem like a long ways away and that we have plenty of time, but trust me, it will take all of that to get it done.  Stay tuned for more updates very soon!

04-24-07 - We've got a whole crap load of updates for you this time.  First we'll start off with the chassis updates.  The car made its journey back to Tube Chassis Designz for a little make over.  You can check that out on the new Weight Loss page.  there are a couple of minor changes to the site layout that you might notice.  I just needed to do a little spring cleaning.  The next update is that we finally got the freshened motor back from Harold Robinson's in Virginia.  Check out the Engine page for those pictures.  After the car gets back from paint things should go together fairly quickly.  Our first race is scheduled for this coming weekend, but we obviously wont' make that one.  We are hoping to make it for the May 26 & 27 races.  I don't see that being a problem.  Keep your eyes open, this year should be a good one!

03-04-07 - I've updated our 2007 Season page to include all of our scheduled events.  We will try our best to make all of them.

03-01-07 - Wow, March 1st all ready.  This year is flying by!  No word on the motor yet other than it is still on schedule to be done by mid-march.  I have added more carnage pictures to the Engine Rebuild Page, so definitely swing by and check those out.  I've also updated our crew page as it stands so far for this year.  Hopefully I will be adding to is as time progresses.  That's all for now, stay tuned for more motor progress...

02-20-07 - Just a quick update today.  The motor is down in Virginia being freshened up and should be done about mid-March.  Things are starting to shape up and look good for this season.  More updates are coming soon.  Stay tuned!!

02-02-07 - Wow, it's been a while since I've been in here.  Sorry about the long delay in updating.  Things have been a little crazy around here.  So some of you may be wondering what has been going on.  Well there hasn't been a whole lot, but there are something to report.  We finally had a chance to pull the motor out and assess all the damage.  It looks like we will need a new block and various other valvetrain related items.  We will be bringing the motor to Harold Robinson and he will be fixing us up to be good as new and ready to race this season!!  I will be updating the site more frequently now as I'm finally back up and running, so stay tuned as things start warming back up around here.

12-11-06 - Just a quick update for you.  Not a whole lot to report this time around.  Still no more progress on the car.  The motor is still sitting there basically untouched.  We have taken bits and pieces of things we will re-use off and cleaned them up.  We will attack it more heavily after the first of the year.  So until then, have a Merry Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year from all of us at Casella Racing.

11-01-06 - Another update coming at you.  Not too much new to report.  We still are sticking with our theory on what happened with the motor.  No real new carnage to talk about.  There appears to be light at the end of the tunnel, but I'll just keep that quiet for now.  I've added a new page to the site called Engine Rebuild.  This will showcase and document the RE-build of the motor.  Hopefully things will go smoothly and it will definitely be a learning experience for us both.  I'll try and post pictures and articles as they happen.  I also added a couple of new links to the Favorite Links Page for your linking pleasure.  Check back soon for more info on the motor.

10-24-06 - The season has come to an end for us.  Unfortunately it ended on a sour note.  Some of you may all ready know about our misfortune, but for those that don't, we lost the motor on the second qualifying run this past weekend.  Apparently there was some sort of a blockage in the fuel jet of one of the cylinders and it caused that piston to be burnt up.  That in turn snapped the rod and sent it flying through the side of the oil pan, collecting another rod and large pieces of the block.  As you can imagine, that is not the way we planned on ending our year.  Needless to say there will be a large expense to fix what is broken, but we will most likely be back for next year.  I've added some pictures to the 2006 Season Page and also some more videos to the Belair Videos Page.  Keep checking back for more updates, there will be plenty.

10-09-06 - Another weekend in the books for us.  Unfortunately  wasn't a very good one.  On the plus side, nothing broke.  The performance just wasn't there though.  We were chasing an electrical gremlin that prevented the nitrous from activating on all 3 runs, so that put a pretty large damper on our day.  I guess we'll just chalk it up to more experience and move on to the next race.  That next race will actually be a back to back weekend coming up on October 21 and 22.  That will give us a couple of weeks to hopefully fix this little issue we're having and get back to things full force.  Check the 2006 Season Page for some pictures from this past weekend's race.  Stay tuned for more info as the next race gets closer.

09-25-06 - Just a quick update for all you loyal fans out there.....all 1 of you.  I've added a couple of pictures to the 2006 Season Page.  Go check them out.  Our next race is this coming weekend and it should be a good outing for us.  I think we've finally got our bugs worked out and can start applying some power.  Look for some new best times in the very near future.  We've also acquired some new lightweight body panels for next year.   We hope to see some of you up there on Sunday.  

09-17-06 - It's been about a month since the last update and there are a few things to fill you in on.  First off, we had a test and tune on the 13th of September.  That went pretty good.  We had a chance to make a couple more passes, neither of which were really that spectacular, but definitely gave us some good data for the coming weekend.  This past weekend was another points race for us and it couldn't have gone any better for us.  I suppose a win would have been nice, but we'll take what we can get.  We made a total of 3 passes and each pass was better than the previous.  The third pass was by far the best, giving us a new personal best ET and MPH of 8.23 @ 171!!!  We finally made a complete pass with both the first and second stage and it really did go flawlessly.  So now it will be time to turn it up a little and see if we can dip into the 7 second zone.  I've added the videos from the 13th and the 16th to the BelAir Videos Page.  Check them out.

08-19-06 - Just a quick update for today.  Our last race was last weekend and we did ok.  Not great, just ok.  The day was full of oil downs and downtime so our racing day was not only cut short but we didn't do that well either.  Our first/last qualifying run was a tire spinning mess, but we did however debut our second stage for the first time.  That netted us a new best MPH of 169.  this proves the hidden potential of the car and makes us look forward to our next outting.  Our first round of elims was another tire spinning crap fest, but we had a good time and got some good data.  Our next time out won't be until September because of me going on vacation, but that will give us some time to get some minor issues figured out and be back at full strength for the next race.  Stay Tuned...

08-06-08 - Only a week out from our next race.  We have a couple of new things to try out this time, so this should be a good race to watch.  We had a little problem with the flexplate loosening up on us, but hopefully we have that straightened out.  Not a whole lot of new stuff to report this time, so just stay tuned for updates next week.

07-23-06 - We are back from our Eddyville, IA trip to the Draglist Nationals and wow was it a great time.  I was a little skeptical about flying half way across the country just for a race for basically nothing, but I was pleasantly surprised at how much of a good time we had.  The car ran great and everything was just perfect.  We met a bunch of great people out there and I think that is what made the trip so nice.  They were the type of people that you just know will be life long friends.  For more information on our trip, go to our message board and check out all the posts.  Just a couple of quick updates to the site.  I've added some pictures from the 7/8 race and also a couple from Eddyville to the 2006 Season Page.  I also added a couple videos from Eddyville to the Belair Videos page.  Our next race will most likely be August 12 for the Jet Cars Under the Stars show.  Should be a great time and I hope to see some of you out there.

07-09-06 - Another weekend has come and gone for us.  We showed up at the track on Saturday for the Night of Thrills in hopes of making our first appearance in the Outlaw Street program.  Things went basically as planned and we qualified with an 8.45.  I'm not sure where that was in the field, but I know we weren't last.  That pass was a pretty good one, a little crooked like the other ones, but basically ok.  The second pass (1st round of elims) was another great pass.  We adjusted the chassis a bit and played with the fuel pressure and got ourselves a new best ET.  We ran it out to an 8.36 @ 163!  It was a great run, we lost to the guy we were racing, but that's not important.  Our next appearance will be in Eddyville, IA at the draglist nationals.  That should be a great time and we will have plenty of video and pictures to share.  Stay tuned!

07-03-06 - We've wrapped up another test session as of yesterday.  Things went very good as far as I'm concerned.  We made 2 passes on the day.  The first pass netted us an 8.46 @ 163 and the second pass was an aborted attempt due to the car being too out of shape.  That's the thing with these type of cars, it is a little tough to get them to repeat things time after time.  I'm sure we'll get it though.  I've added the videos from yesterday to the Belair Videos Page so go check them out.  Our next scheduled appearance is this coming Saturday, July 8.  Stay tuned for more...

06-29-06 - Just a quick update today.  We are planning on heading up this coming Sunday (July 2) for a test and tune before next weekend's race.  We are hoping to make our long awaited 7 seconds runs, but only time will tell.  I've added a couple of new pictures to the 2006 Season Page from track photographer Denis LeBlanc of Actionracingphotos.com, go check 'em out.  That's all for now.

06-25-06 - Another test session is in the books for us.  This past Wednesday, we went up to the track for a track rental and to hopefully get our long awaited first nitrous pass on the car.  the weather was reasonably hot and sunny and things went really well.  Because of us installing a new transmission, we wanted to make sure things were going to go smoothly, so the first pass was a motor only pass.  Things went fine, so we threw some juice at it for the second run.  It got a little out of shape, but a quick lift and things were fine.  Check the Bel Air Videos page for videos of both runs.  We are planning on attending the track on July 2nd for a test and tune session, so keep your eyes peeled for another update in the near future.

06-13-06 - Just a couple small updates today.  The transmission is all repaired and back in the car.  Surprisingly it went very smoothly.  Mike, Mike, Mike and Bob had the pleasure of staying up until 10:30pm on a Thursday night to make sure everything was installed properly.  A big thank you to mike #3 and Bob for helping us get things done.  Our race on the 10th got rained out so our next outing will be July 8th.  That should give us some time to go over everything and make sure we are ready for a full blast.  Now on to the site updates.  I updated the 2006 Race Schedule to include the names of the events and the locations, as well as some pictures that were taken by the track photographer Denis LeBlanc @ action Racing Photos.  Great job by him and Jay Spinella!  I also added a small video to the Belair Videos Page from this past Sunday's car show which we attended.  See our message board for more details on that.  That's all for now, stay tuned for more updates and info on our season.

06-04-06 - The transmission is out being repaired from last weekend's burn-up, and that should be back by this coming week.  It was pretty much a total loss which sucks.  I've added a picture of our crew for 2006 to the Crew Page.  No racing this weekend but we are scheduled for June 10.  So keep your eyes peeled for more updates.

05-29-06 - Ok, well we've gotten a couple of test and tunes out of the way with some good and not so good results.  Last weekend we made one pass before the rains came but that run was hindered by electrical problems so it wasn't even worth talking about.  Yesterday was one of our local nostalgia races.  We ended up making another pass on the car but quickly realized that 1st gear in the transmission had had enough.  That's right, we burnt it up all ready.  But we are going to remove it, send it out, and get the car back up and running for June 10th.  Even though first gear decided to take a crap on that run, we still got a decent run in.  The ET was only a 10.73 but the MPH was 154, which shows a lot of potential.  I'll keep you posted on the transmission progress.  Until then, just be patient, things will come together very soon.

05-18-06 - The first test session is finally under our belts.  After fighting rain for 10 straight days, we finally had an opportunity to get up to the track and shake this thing down.  The results weren't stellar, but we got some good data to work with which is what we wanted.  I've added the videos from the test session to the Belair Videos page.  the next scheduled test for us is this coming Sunday, May 21.  We should get some good runs in and hopefully that long awaited sub 8 second run!  Stay tuned....

05-01-06 - Ok, the paint work is all done, the bumpers are installed, the hood is on and we are ready to go racing!!!  Unfortunately, I think it's going to rain....  We won't know for sure until tomorrow (Tuesday) sometime, so things might still be on, but it's not looking good.  The hood and bumpers came out absolutely awesome!!  They were painted by one of the 4 Mikes on the racing team.  he does great work, but I think he may be taking  a break from painting for a while.  I will keep you posted on what happens for this coming Wednesday.  Until then, stay tuned...

04-25-06 - Things are coming along quite nicely.  We are just waiting on the hood and bumpers to come back from paint and we will be all set for the 2006 debut!  I've added a couple of pictures to the Chassis After 2 Page of the trial fit of the hood and bumpers.  The car is all ATI'd and ready to run.  We will be doing some pre-season testing on may 3rd so look for pictures and video from that.  That's all for now, Check back soon for the new best ET and Speed.

03-20-06 - Moving right along...  The Bel air is back at Tube Chassis Designz for some finishing touches.  Pictures will follow as soon as we get it back.  We're gathering a crew together that will stay with us for the season to help out with whatever jobs arise.  Check out The Crew page at the top of the screen to learn more about us.  The message board is finally seeing some life.  We're up to a whopping 11 members now and growing.   We're about a month or so away from making some passes so I hope you're all strapped in!  

03-06-06 - Yes, it's true, the camaro is sold.  I will no longer be a part of the actual driving, but Instead be the tuner/crew chief for the bel air.  I'm sad to see my car go, but happy at the same time.  I will build another car some day, but for now I'm just going to have fun and try and make the other car go FAST!

02-27-06 - Wow, been a while since I've been in here.  You may have noticed on the home page that my picture has changed a little bit.  Yes, it's true, the car is sold.  It was up in the air if I was going to or not, and it just so happened that I did.  The need for money outgrows the need to have a good time unfortunately.  I will build another car someday, but I will be plenty busy as the crew chief/everything else for the yellow car.  Dad will need someone with a clear and dedicated head if he is to get this thing down the track with some respectable numbers.  So stay tuned to the site, just because my car is gone, doesn't mean that the action is going to stop.  Things will get going in here in about a month or so.

01-06-06 - Happy New Year!!...........and for that matter...Merry Christmas!!  Wow, it's been over a month since the last update.  I guess there isn't a whole lot to tell you about.  Christmas and New Years were good, I'm glad to be in 2006.  This year should be a good one for us.  Some changes to my car include new side windows, rear tires, and a new shifter.  Just some stuff to help make things a little easier on me as far as consistency go.  The 60 will be getting some finishing touches put on such as the bumpers and a fresh coat of paint on the cage.  2006 will be much busier for the 60 than my car, but I will try and get in just as many runs as last year.  Our message board has picked up slightly, not really a booming board, but it has a few members.  I will keep everyone posted on our progress as things get closer to getting warmer.  Have a great winter!!

11-27-05 - Wow, it's been a while since I updated this place.  There really isn't much to say I guess.  Both cars are in hibernation for the winter.  I did a little winterization to the Camaro just to keep things in order.  I will be replacing the rear tires and a few other things for next year.  The 60 will hopefully be getting the finishing touches put on the body work and just a few other minor details and be back out for a full season next year.  It's going to be a long winter, but we're both ready for what lies ahead.  So for now, have a safe and happy holiday season!!

10-04-05 - I've added a page to the Bel Air side of the site.  Bel Air Videos is where you will find all the videos that we take from this season and beyond.  We had another successful weekend of testing the yellow beast.  Check the 2005 Season page for more info on that.  I will be heading back up with my car this coming weekend so stay tuned for a possible new best ET and Speed.

10-01-05 - Wow, October all ready!  I can't believe how fast this year is going by.  But I guess they say, time flies when you're having fun.  Just a small update for today.  I've updated the Chassis After 2 Page on the 60 side.  Just a few more pictures of the almost completed car.  We are going racing tomorrow for a few more test runs.  Hopefully we will get a couple of full quarter mile passes in.  I'll keep you posted.

09-28-05 - A quick update for all our faithful followers.  We had our first shakedown pass for the 60 finally and things went pretty good.  Check the 2005 Season Page for more details on that.  We will be doing more testing this coming weekend and I'll post another update next week.  Also, don't forget to check out our message Board.  Drop by and say Hi.

09-15-05 - I'm back from vacation.  I had a great time, Florida is awesome.  Just a quick update today.  I've added more pictures to the Chassis After 2 Page on the Bel air side.  That car is now in the chassis shop for finishing touches and could see some track action as early as next week!!  Stay tuned for more info on that.
