8k rpm ...

Zeeker. Haven't heard that name in awhile. Before I converted my car to a 4 link from the ladder bars that were in it when I bought it, I called every single chassis shop in the country who would talk to me. Every single one of them said to leave the ladder bar in it. This was a stick car and 7000 on launch was about as low as I let it get. I knew the ladder bars were hurting it.

I almost gave up but I called Zeeker. Guy answers the phone and I tell him what I have and he says why the ladder bar? That makes no sense. It's bad enough at the launch but it will be equally as bad I the gear changes. Get rid of those and use a 4 link. Only guy in the country to tell me what I already knew. I only live about 2.5 hours south of Art Morrison. I had spent an entire Saturday up there talking with them. Went there to buy a 4 link, but they talked my dad and my buddy out of it. The sorry assed dude also spent his time trying to convince me to out a power glide in the car. I said I'd cut my balls off with a rusty butter knife long before that happened. What a pussy that guy was. I forget his name or I'd drop it here just to piss off the spectators.

Anyway, the guy on the phone was none other that Dave Morgan, the guy who wrote the Doorslammers chassis book. The only guy in the country who agreed with the 4 link (how is that for a mane drop??).

Eventually I went to Seattle and met him and went through his chassis class. Super nice guy and he wasn't afraid to tell a guy when he was off his rocker or his stuff was junk.

Well that's my Zeeker story and I'm sticking to it.
Loren Zeedyk was Marks mentor.
I knew Loren, but his health was going down when I met him.
His knowledge of chassis and brakes, to intakes and heads was enormous.
I have several Zeeker stories myself, as he visited Hogan race engines numerous times while I was there. I was called 12
