Rolled the car out side for the first time with the front clip on.


All steel minus hood rolled off the scales just like this at 2,214 with me in it! Obvioulsy missing doors, wheel tubs, and rear half tin...Think I'll meet my goal of 2,400 lbs at the starting line.

Will be running my stroker small block for the time being, until I get to build a real motor

That is one sharp car!!

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I'll be in Super Pro...maybe try some Super Gas if I have the time/funds to do so.

I be getting my Competition License on its maiden voyage as well

Triple Threat I sure you'll see it in person sometime next year...if not late this year

Gotta show off the fancy bead rolling and the Carbon tubs

X 2, nice job. Did you set up the chassis for a small block and a big block?
