I don't know about the East Coast. Int the Mid West 4 links are not allowed in N/SS. If they were, I would have used one. Nice looking car,nice detail.

Not according to the rules on the Mo-power site. There is no mention of 4 links being legal, just leaf springs and ladder bars. The other thing I spotted while going over the rules was no glides.

Thanks guys I cant wait to have this car done... Im looking forward to to getting it done and making some passes with it next Spring... I just want to do it right and not cut any corners..



Haven't been on in a while so figured I would go through all my old posts. Going through some of my old posts that needed follow-up and this one needed attention. NoMoparatLVD, NoMoparatATCO, NoMoparatIsland, NoAtcotrackrental, Hmmm? Hey Rob, you said you'll be ready in the spring. How about some updates and an announcement that you'll be at Englishtown Next Weekend. How about some pics of the completed 65. Another Mopar day is only 10 days away.




No updates DrJO when there is an update I will post it... I have bigger and better things going on right now racing isnt my focus... Opening up my 3rd car wash is my focus... Hows your car doing? You running any faster this year with your car?
