I was talking to Ben at ProMax Carb's booth at Monster Mopar Weekend on Sat. morning, and he told me about a customer they had just done some work for. He told me to watch for the black Cuda with the ProMax logo on the scoop. Tell me, isn't this where you're supposed to mount your wheelie bars?

And on the bumper!

The announcer said he's taking the car to the annual wheelie contest at Byron, next week I think.

if they were lower they would be anti-wheelie bars, right?

The yellow Cuda was at MMW too, and he's also going to the Byron event. A couple neat things about it: he has small skid plates instead of wheelie bar wheels, and he has a video camera attached to the center of the front bumper, angled downwards a bit, allowing him to see the track while he's in the air.

Funny, I am going to hear Scott talking in my sleep for a couple more days after listening to him for 12+ hours two days in row.
Both those Cuda's were awesome!

Good 'ol Ben at ProMax. I was in a major jamb Saturday morning. Smoked my starter. Bought it from Mancini. Broke my battery cable end taking the old one out. Run to the swap side. Hit up Ben. Tell him my jamb. Goes into his tool box and digs out a nasty old copper end and says, "What's it worth to you"? I say "What?". He says, "Well how much is it worth?". I say "How much do you need?". Five dollars later I got the end. A 50 cent end may I add. Yes I needed it to fix my car, and yes 5 bucks is only 5 bucks, but WHAT THE %&^%*^%?!?!?!?!?!? In my opinion, Ben's no racer at all. He just wants money. I've spent thousands with him and will never give him another dime. Even if it means I don't have a part to fix my car!!
