That looks awesome, Doug! An attention getter for sure!!

So, which car stays at home now? Or did you buy a Gi-normous stacker trailer?!

Can't wait to see it in person. You ought to show up at the Indy points meet in April and enter in Super Street...

It is built to be stocker. Since it is going to a while before we know the rules and class in NHRA I will race it at Chrysler Classic , Mopars at the Strip and other Mopar races I go to. So right now its a real cool Pro bracket car. I will also have a stocker motor when we know the rules. It is not a Drag Pak car but built similar to the Drag Pak car.



NICE VEHICLE, I'LL BE LOOKING FOR IT AT MOPARS AT THE STRIP.

Guessing 9.90s at 135 mph should be about 3200# with my 165 lbs onboard.

Do you happen to remember what it weighed when you guys pulled it into the shop?

Couple of silly questions....

Looks like you did not tub it? Are you using the stock wheel wells, and if so, what size tire? Won't this limit it too much?

Why the weird coil set-up on the rear and not a ladder bar set-up?

The coil set up is because in stock eliminator you have to run the factory type suspension.

This rear set up is suppose to be legal in stock eliminator. Right now it has 9 inch tires on it now. We think a 10 tire will also fit.
