VIDEO! http://i268.photobucket.com:80/albums/jj21/NSMC2008/Atco%202008/April%2014%202008%20Video/?action=view¤t=4-14Shocked1060.flv
Car is on Air Ride which makes it possible to adjust ride height and spring rate. Front sway bar was connected the whole time! This is the same combo I auto cross with. The only bolts I turned were the lug nuts. lol CCW was able to make wheels to fit over the big brakes. I was able to run a 10.60 on motor with a 3k stall. The Twist Machine Muscle Drive converter works awesome in every situation, street, auto cross and drag! What more could you ask for.
Jake's Rod Shop builds a hell of a car!

Glad to see other pro-touring guys that still believe in acceleration too! My previous '69 went 10s with just a tire swap too, most people couldn't believe it when they saw it in it's pro-touring form.
Your car sounds/looks killer!

on that run. I am surprised the G bar is standing up to that kind of abuse. Are you running the bushings that come with that kit or did you upgrade?
Great car. Look forward to seeing/meeting you at Year One

Your car just moved way up on my favorites list, very impressive.
This is what I want to do with my car. can't wait to see it on the juice.
Good to see I'm not the only Drag fan here.

X2....its great to see these cars hit the strip. Not many do. Every time I try and get some guys with PT car to go to the strip.....none of them go! Shoot...not many go do any roadracing either.....most are Pro touring posers.
Your car rocks!

vin, now you have a roll bar and you have a dvd recorder, you had better get a roll bar mount or suction cup mount before yr 1

The rear tires are 26/12 M&H racemaster slick on a 16/11 CCW wheel.
Atco was alot of fun. I went with a group of guys from long island. We did a rental.

Three weeks until the 9 second attempts with nice cold air--Yummy. Chassis dyno tuning in two weeks. Best run to date is a 10.30.
