I know the frontal area is huge on the B bodies, but does it affect your stripe judgement compared to the A bodies. I just find everything so easy in the Dart, as I have raced these cars for 18 years now. I really wanna kick some butt this weekend in Verns car and would like any tips you may be able to give. My next ? is who wants to set the over under on how many rounds I will go on Saturday?

Just roll up on people in the staging lanes and pick your spot on them like im sure you already do. I didn't find it any different. you will kick butt as usual. 5325901-536400769_Lerj3-O-2.jpg (26 downloads)

Now if you were going to a long nose B body like a 71-74 Charger, then you would have some adjustment on driving the stripe. 5326560-pinkslaunch.jpg (26 downloads)
