There sure are some great cars in this thread, very inspiring
Since I changed direction from SS/DA to Pro Stock I decided that I "needed" a magnesium Dana 60 so I bought one & it is on it's way as we speak.

Took this at the 2011 Winternationals. Mike was runner-up with this car at the 2013 Winternationals, currently running in SS/JA with a 383.
If it ain't broke ... you're not pushing it hard enough.

Those are good choices to see some doorslammer action. We raced at Norwalk a good bit when I lived in Ohio - nice track. Lot of dragsters, altereds, and funny cars here on the west coast where I live now, but the Midwest is where the door car action is best. The U.S. Nationals at Indy is a great door car race too if you ever get a chance to go to that. Here is one I took of the Andy Boltz/Baughman's 'Cuda at the 1989 U.S. Nationals.

Here is a photo of Don Grotheer's last Pro Stock car. I know it isn't a Mopar but NHRA had factored the Hemi out of the class.
More like Chrysler cut off Don's sponsorship. What to do? Go out and buy a car that was competitive unlike the Hemi Mopars and punitive weight that NHRA imposed on them. And just for fun (or spite) Don had a big Mopar logo on the rear windshield of his Pinto.

Wondering if anyone has additional info on the Boitnoit Bros cuda in the 3rd pic from Qwik426 posted on 12/14/2005. The one with the blue roof. Think I may have this car.
