Hello Guys....hope you all had a great Christmas and are ready for the new year thats just around the corner.....well last year at this time we were in the middle of restoring/rebuilding this Dodge colt for my 17 year old son to bracket race in 2010.....he did a great job driving the car considering he only has driven Jr Dragsters...he went easy 10.40's with a pump gas 318 and a small 390CFM 4BBL carb....even won a race in box against allot of heavy hitters....:)



Now for 2011 my 16 year old son will be racing this 80 Plymouth Arrow drag car that we rescued from sitting since 1988.....cool little tube chassis car....Pump Gas BB with glide looking for low 10's like the colt.....Jesse
