Well the race at Maxton was rainy and windy but the B&C Motors team was able to set two new records. Cody Cook drove the car 94.528 mph to set a new K36 and Elbert Efird set a new H/FRS record at 93.274 mph
The new car had a few problems and well need a little before next year.

Any information about the K36 car? I'm surprised more people haven't jumped in here.
Thanks |

The K36 recoed B&C Motors posted for Maxton is really a ECTA record for NA36. Tom Bruch set a NA36 record at Maxton of 90 mph but it was recorded as a K36 by the folks at the ECTA a mistake. Sorry about the miss quote, May the Speed With Us All.
