It does haul the mail for sure. The guys that tune and drive the car are a bunch of cool guys. Very personal and down to earth. Had a chance to talk to them at Street Outlaws in Denver this summer.
For sure we met them in Boise Idaho. He let my 13 year old son sit in the car.

Burns out, stages, then holds on to the steering wheel with both hands. Regardless, that thing flies.

All the power in the world can’t make up for dead late in heads up racing

Jack French is the vehicle owner and is a local to our area. "Atomizer Injectors". My son has met the guy and he is a REAL Mopar dude. Hats off to anybody that can make a heavy car competitive in that field..

Jack has someone else drive and tune the car but he's building a second car - a Stratus I believe - that he's going to drive. I've been to his shop a few times and bought several sets of injectors from him. He's as nice in person as he seems on TV.

The power it takes to overcome all that cars obstacles to speed is amazing to me. Flat front, high off the ground, short wheelbase ect, and still runs like a promod. Absolutely amazing from a power management standpoint.
The car actually has a LONG wheelbase.
