We are here at the Indy points meet with the new Challenger. Its is A/SA. The engine is a legal Drag Pak motor 6.1 built by Indy Cylinder Head. The car is running great. My 3rd qualifing pass I went 10.192 @130.68 mph. After the second run I was the 12th qualifier out of 90 stockers. Yesterday in better air it went 10.10. The car drives like a dream, the best 60ft has been 1.360. I get one more pass in the morning and then first round is at 2PM. Wish me luck, Thanks Doug Duell

Hey Doug. What else did you do since the Mats. Was the Motor the only change? How goes it against the Cobra Jets? My buddys down there with there new Cobra Jet running SS/DA. There will be a new Challenger S/S car from these guys as well.
Good Luck.
Doug

Your buddy's Cobra Jet looked good, it just didn't make it down the track. Really!

Congrats Doug! number 12 is not too shabby for being that early in the development.
Man I wanna drive that thing. Any time day or night you call me and I will be there
Also heard from Chris Wheatcraft that Chuck got in the 6.90's in her car and is number 13 in Top Dragster

That looks like the infamous Matt Wright in the picture checking the air in the tires. For those of you who don't know Matt he runs BRC Racecraft and he is the builder of Doug's Challenger. He has also done quite a bit of work on mine and he is meticulous when it comes to building a car.

Good news. I won my first NHRA round. I went 10.218 on a 10.20 dial. I had a .006 light. The Chevy I raced went 12.36 on a 12.41 dial. He had a .029 light. Im happy I get to race on Sunday.Thanks, Doug Duell

Hard to fit into a .024 package when you have a .029 light. Nice driving. Doug looks like you are on your way. Just remember us little guys when you get to the top

Re: Duell goes 10.21 in new Challenger at Indy Points Meeet - 04/26/09 12:24 AM

That would be cool, but I have to win the second round 1st.

Got lucky and won the 2nd round. I went 10.152 on a 10.14 dial in. I had a .041 light. Jerry Stamps driving a super nice Duster had a .035 light but went 11.582 on a 11.52 dial in. Thanks, Doug

Looks like Duell and Wilkes, heads up in round #3.

Re: Duell goes 10.21 in new Challenger at Indy Points Meeet - 04/26/09 03:01 PM

Wilkes and Duell won't meet until the finals. Randy is on the left side of the ladder and Doug is on the right side of the ladder.

That Cobra Jet is BADDDDDD!!! It's unfortunate that the Challenger falls way short in the factory hot rod wars.

Doug,
Way to go. You can't complain about your first weekend running stock. I know you made your old man proud. I am sure that you got everyones attention.
See you in Columbus.

These Guys always build a nice car. MPR did the chassis and they did all the detail,wiring plumbing,headers,Etc. Its first pass was last friday. Rock gave up his S/C dragster to run this car. He'll still be running his S/G Corvette as well.
