YATES FINDING POWER WITH KRISHER
Fri, 2008-04-04 13:03
Jim Yates used Ron Krisher horsepower to earn a spot in last weekend's
final eliminations during the NHRA O'Reilly Springnationals in Houston,
Texas.
“We seem to be running pretty good and I don't see anything changing in that aspect for a while,” Yates explained. “We seem to have pretty good power. The motors are running pretty good and picking up quite a bit. I'm really happy with what I've seen so far.”
Where Yates is getting his horsepower has been the topic of much discussion early in the 2008 season. He’s looked around, and even though Frank Iaconio is building an engine, he’s content leasing the Krisher horsepower.

“Frankie's building an engine but he didn't have an engine together yet,” said Yates. “I hope that when he gets it together we'd go out and run it for him to see how it runs. He wants to get a good, accurate decision on how it will run down the track. He's got a great baseline on his dyno because he's had Mike Edwards there for the last couple of years. He knows exactly what it takes to qualify.
“A lot of these racers would believe in it more if they saw it go down a race track. I've offered to help him do that if he gets to that point where he can run it down the race track. I've known Frankie for a long time and he's always made horsepower, he's always been competitive out here in Pro Stock and I'd like to see him get back on top. Maybe it'll work out for him and us, we'll just have to wait and see.”
