New guy from Kentucky
Hello guys/gals.
I'm an active member on www.nloc.net , but decided to broaden my horizons somewhat and see what this site has to offer.
Just want to introduce myself. My name is Keith Blackburn and I hail from a little town in Ky called Pikeville. It is home to a lot racers & gear-heads. One in particular is McCoy Motorsports (Sy/Ty gurru's at one time)
I am one of those racing gear-heads and speed junkies myself. I have an 03 supercharged Harley (soon to be sold) & two 1993 Gen. 1 Lightnings, one of which is stock (not-for long)
,...... this is my daily driver,.......and another one that is anything but stock.
It was a creation that I built myself (with the exception of the Copperhead Orange paint) over a period of almost 2 years. I basicly gave it the Overhaulin treatment and did a body-off frame resto to it.
I have run a best of 10.40 @ 129mph w/ 1.47 60' (which can be verified by the current member FMOS Racing which holds your guys #1 spot on the 1/4 mile ET list) I have run up against him on several occassions and had him whip my butt,.......But I did have him beat to the 1/8 mile mark on one occassion.
Motor is a nitrous injected 514 Big-Block.
My race truck is going through many changes over the winter. Most of which include a major diet (weight reduction) that should hopefully have my truck in the high 9's in the 1/4-mile this spring.
Here's a few pics of my trucks,...........

Some serious iron there. Nice!
Welcome aboard. Always good to see a fellow Ky'n. I agree there are some serious gearheads in Pike county. Run into them at Clay City all the time.
