TOLIVER, ALAN JOHNSON PARTNERS?

Over the weekend Agent 1320 heard a little more on the possible return of Jerry Toliver to Fuel Flops. The latest info is that Toliver will buy half of Alan Johnson's Toyota-bodied team and that he would come back in the TRD-developed body and that Alan would tune the car from a distance.

Talk about team orders, what would happen should Toliver or Jim Head, both of whom reportedly get tuning help from Johnson, meet up against a Schumacher team car? Could be very interesting. Wonder if either one of those guys could end up parking next to a team Schumacher car. [10-21-2003]

ODDY/HAHN QUICKEST IN BOTH LEAGUES NOW

Fred Hahn drove Jim Oddy's Summit Racing Equipment-backed Pro Mod to a 6.111 at Rockingham Dragway over the weekend at the last IHRA event of the season. The Agent couldn't get all of the numbers but he did find out that Oddy's Vette went 3.98 at 180 and change to the eighth. Oddy and Hahn now own the quickest passes in Pro Mod on both the NHRA and IHRA circuits. (DRO file photo by Jeff Burk) [10-21-2003]

PEACO JOINS IHRA MANAGEMENT?

Agent 1320 hears that Skooter Peaco, who formerly worked at Summit Racing Equipment in their racing program and also competes on the IHRA circuit with his own 10.90 pickup,

is rumored to have signed on as the event director for that sanctioning body for the 2004 season. Peaco's experience dealing with racers in his capacity at Summit, his own experience as a racer, and his long association with Bill Bader and the IHRA makes him the logical choice for the job. Peaco spent last week hanging at Rockingham Dragway with an IHRA uniform on during the World Finals, which makes the Agent think this rumor is probably true. If true, it would be a great acquisition for the sanctioning body.
