Go get em and good luck with that beautiful car.....

Running as fast as it has for the first time out was awesome and you have room to really improve on it. You should already be proud of what you have put together. Have fun

Air is cool and the barometric pressure is high. They should be turning some great times at Denton.

Rooting for ya'

Regarding weight, here is a PDF I found breaking down the Drag Pak cars. I know they were pretty light (3000lbs?) and you may see things on them that yours doesn't have. Has all part numbers..

Inner cooler let go on us in the burnout box in Q4. Pushed a lot of water into the engine. We think everything is ok as far as the engine is concerned. Will be getting a new and lighter inner cooler for it. Also looking into carbon doors. The car drives amazing and pictures do it no justice. B and B did an amazing job from top to bottom. We will be making some changes and getting it ready for Georgia in February. Thanks for all the compliments! I'll get video posted up in a few days.

Excellent job, but man....that thing is heavy.

What's the min. in that class???

I think he has to be 3300 in x275 trim. I don't think his turbo will make it through to next year, it will be outlawed or written out of the rules with lead. Quite a few cars have been 4.50s with this turbo so I don't see it staying. Oh congrats on the pass that quite a accomplishment on the cars second outing. Wish you the best of luck.

Actually my turbo will remain legal. The Precision MF88 will be outlawed as well as the Garrett MF88. I will gave to weigh 3350-3400# next year so 100-150# will have to go. My LF88 has only been a 4.654 and we aren't far off of that with our combo considering the issues we were having!

Oh I though you had the killer turbo on it. But after sat night I don't know what they will do with this class. Dean Marinis (orange 2001 cobra mustang) just went 4.55, 4.56, 4.57, 4.58 with his bbc nitrous car and won the event. Both Petey Smallblock and Ron Rhoads were running mid 4.60s with sb nitrous combos, so may be they just need to let the class be faster then trying to real it in. This and ultra street are my favorite classes, as always it awesome to see a mopar in this class.
