Ken (the Texas race cars chassis builder guy, I think...) is such a hard core Chevy guy. And, that's OK, to a point. Usually the more involved with race cars someone becomes the more that blind loyalty dissipates. Even if he's exclusively a T/S, super class and P/M style builder, I've never seen such ignorance about other mainstream classes. He once asked a guy with a super stocker if he was using a throttle stop. And recently, he guessed the ET of a AA/S '67 Fairlane to be nearly a full second slower than an I/SA Chevelle in back to back passes. Sorry, Ken, but there ain't that much bowtie magic in the world.
But, it's all in fun I guess and much better than watching yet another NASCAR show.

It must be like a chicken bone in the throat for those people to actually have to put a Chrysler product on the show.

That was a great looking car, and sounded nice...I think even Ken mentioned how good it sounded.

I thought he ws immediately in trouble on his burn out. I think he WAY overheated the tires and he would be spinning right from the git go. That being said, they love burn outs on that show, so I suspect he was giving them a little " eye candy" there. I would have liked to see it run the whole 1320 for sure....but great car and glad to see it on TV....

Then we must be watching two different shows brother.

Besides, the creator and producer of the the show is the same overblown ego that does "Pinks" and he rather have a root canal than put a Mopar on the show. We're only saved by his #2, who's one of us.

I've been 5.52 in the true 1/8 mile with a 1.20 sixty foot don't know what that would be in the 1/4 thanks for all the kind words. Sorry to respond so late. I don't have much time so I hardly get on any boards now days. The hood stated life as a 3" Cowel then we customized it to what y'all see.
