I like the stance, nice and low...you might be taking the stripe with the nose instead of the tire with this one. 67 Barracuda street car, 408, e85, 1.38 60', 6.44 @105.9 in the 1/8 mile, 10.19 @130.5 in the 1/4...so far....

Mine scaled 3292 without me when it still had the stock steering column, dash and all the EFI wire harness, it's probably closer to 3150 now. Mine runs low 11's up here at 7000' all motor, fans love it...Fast trucks are cool. 2001 Dodge Dakota 408 All Motor 11.27 @ 117.83 mph 2017 NM Mopar Challenge Series Champion.

Currently in the thick of the season and plan to keep the dart together for some big money races and ET finals. Assuming i'm not headed to Pomona i'll pull the car apart then, freshen the motor and drop it in the truck. I'll put it on 4 wheel scales as well to get an accurate weight number. -Dustin 67 Dart, 9 second, 392" G3 Hemi 68 Barracuda 340 F/SA

The reason I'm bringing it up is the rules, politics, tech. details and rulles, instant HP factoring if you run fast and all the other stuff you have to deal with when running any kind of a class car in NHRA racing Not tryingto deter, hopefully you already have some insight on NHRA Division and National event racing Either way I know you will try to excell in any endeavor When does the season start at Pacific and Bremerton? Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

Pacific has yet to release a schedule. I believe Bremerton starts sometime in March. -Dustin 67 Dart, 9 second, 392" G3 Hemi 68 Barracuda 340 F/SA
