DRAG PAK 003 PICS WITH TIMESLIPS!!!!!!!

Looks nice Mike. Any interior shots? Are those cars legal for Stock, or just Super Stock?

Jeff

Here's a shot of Doug's leaving the line this weekend at my local track.

Just curious what your hoping it will run??

What did the white one run???

The white one has run 10.20's already. Maybe a high teen if I remember correctly.

Seeing it built like that makes everything perfectly proportionate. Nicely done.. Now get us some #'s so we can even more..

Nice challenger, but I want to see the "guts" of the car, and I also wouldnt mind seeing the fastback cuda in the shop...

FWIW the sound deadening in those cars weighs like 400-500 lbs. These DPK cars shed 1000 lbs and still retain most of the interior.

The fastback cuda in the shop is Don Bales' silver bullet. Ton of pics on hemishootout .net or my website. Going to the dyno in the morning. Scaled the car today, and got everything squared away. I'll post some pics after the test. Mike

looking good Mike

That is just KOOL....

Mike, I have to say you build some of the best quality cars I have ever seen. I hope to make it to Indy just to see the cars you have worked on.

Looks great!!!!!!!

Looks Great Mike!
You gotta love the new Hemi cars.

Sooo, showed up at the chassis dyno yesterday at 7 am, done at nine with some good numbers in hand, not one problem which was nice. Had IRP rented for the day so we head over there at 10, get everything unloaded, get Randy acclimated to the car.... he just saw it for the first time at 7. Start out with the high chip low, and the shift light at 6800 just to get a check out run. First pass 10.34 1.38 60foot........on the high chip for 5 hun at the 1-2 and for 2.5 tenths at the big end !!! Next pass, nails the shift points, raised the high chip a hun, just sneaking up on it, 1.34 60 foot
6.38 in the eighth, 10.15 at only 121!!!!!!!!! On the high chip for a tenth and a half. That's 1.15 under on the second pass at 2980 feet DA on the chip forever. This thing is a rocketship. Period. Third pass 1.321 60 foot!!!!!!! Fourth pass the tuner picks up nine on the backhalf from the 10.15 run and it's still on the chip at the big end. Owners ended up calling it good as we had some great data already. Great day, never touched a knob, way low on tire pressure as we were "sneaking up on it" . This car will go mid to high 1.20 60 foot and 9.90 something easy. Needless to say it was a smashing success. Off to get it and the other superstockers ready for indy. See you there. Mike

Absolutely freaking awesome. Great paint job, and it's already hauling the mail! Thanks for helping to make the whole program a success. Racing the car is the most important part.

Tech related: during the initial buildup a rather large steel crosscar beam near the rear footwell is cut out, and all the side impact beams are also cut out for weight savings. Though the sound deadener is pretty substantial, the car loses a whole bunch of metal also.

What did that car weigh (race weight)

3300 a little under Mike

This is what i like to hear, backing up your great looking cars, with proven time slips.
I am very glad that these cars will be competitive!!

Great day!!! I hope it doesn't take long for these cars to start competition. Good job Mike!!

Shop looks like a bomb went off around where the challenger was sitting. Seems to happen every year around indy time. Frito, competition will start the week after next. Mike

That car looks sweet and is bad azz! Wondering why the MPH is so slow...not that it matters much i guess..lol

The mph is low because the we haven't raised the high chip up yet. It hit the limiter on the 10.15 100 feet before the finish line!

a/sa index is 11.30 8lbs x 385hp plus 170 equals 3250

Wow, that thing is going to be tough in A/SA. Like everything I've seen you build Mike it looks top shelf

Thanks, got a nice dart chassis for sale cheap

Sounds like you may have something for those pesky Cobra Jets at Indy.
