Notes: Began racing with OFA in 2000 with "Rat 1", then with "Rat 2" in 2001. Rat 2 was the primary car through July 2012 at which time it was sold. Rat 1 was front halved by Tom and readied for nostalgia races and pure fun. Rat 2 finished 5th with OFA in 2002.

Notes: This picture from Great Bend at a Heartland Hot Rod Reunion. The (now) 489 cubic inch Chevy motor (Ironrodent) was being used as the 496 KB Chevy (Alumirat) was being freshened. We were entered in Open Fuel, qualified well and went to the final where an ailing trans bit us. We ran a best of 6.94 at 195.

Notes: 2007 was our first year to attend the Eddyville WFAN (as of now we have attended 7 and have qualified at all those) We qualified #7 in the A field and went to the semis, beating Randy Baker in the "Nitro Madness" in Rd 1. We won the Mid-America Nostalgia Nationals in Open Fuel of September that year. It paid $1500, but there was no commemorative trophy which is what we really wanted! This is one of my favorite pics by the way. My crew chief (and usually only crew) wife Phyllis was a bit afraid of the car when we started out in the late 90's. She would stand back a ways when bringing the car up to stage. By the time this pic was taken, she was fearless and right on top of the car. I really am in awe of her growth and commitment. She is the best. We have had a blast together racing

Notes: Ran a very limited schedule in 2012 with the highlights being 4 for 5 at a Great Bend Rocky Mountain Supercharger gathering and our final pass with Rat2 at KID (pictured) that would likely have been our best in a while until we hit a patch of goo at about 500' and got seriously crossed up.

Notes: This 2013 picture from Eddyville WFAN and is of the "resurrected" 1968 RudeRat car. RudeRat Too had been sold the previous summer. "Rat 1" qualified in the top half of the B field, but broke the front axle when the car wheelied in the first round.

Notes: 2010 would have been a good year, qualified at WFAN in the A field once again, ran an RMS heads up event and won the first Texas Blown Fuel (now SHRA) event at Denton. However Tim Hay lost his life at Eddyville that year, that overpowered all else. The picture is of our second round win at the SHRA event. The Ironrodent engine was being used at that event.

Notes: We didn't attend WFAN in 2011 as the death of good friend Tim Hay there the previous year was still too fresh in our hearts. We did attend the memorial race for Tim (Candy and Sean) in Denton last year (2010). It was the last OFA race that we have attended. Our racing highlight for the year was a win at the Great Bend RMS circuit race.
