Well, actually got selected for 4 cars this year, but a couple of those are old stand buys. Getting into PRI is a bit special as there are probably less then 100 cars in the entire show and only 25 special feature vehicles, and we got selected for 4 of those special feature spots this year. Two of the cars were awarded their own booths, the other two are in the Cafe Collection with everything from Jet Dragsters, to vintage FX Funny cars.
The first debut car is Mark Deutsch awesome 69VN10. Mark's car came to us just before summer after being traped in body shop prison for quite a while. Long story short the previous shop was doing gorgeous work but the bills and schedule were out of control with no end in site. Mark thought someone more familiar with Pro Touring Camaro builds and someone that could properly forcast cost may be better suited to see this one through. I think we have made his dream come true!
The car is simply STUNNING with awesome attention to detail in the Mark Deutsch / Ben Hermance design. The details are many, more then I have time for right now, but the basics are 550HP LS3, 4L65E, Full Chris Alston treatment front to back, Prodigy Total Car G Machine 14" Wilwood's all around, Everything Fesler offers including the first set of Fesler's new door and side panels. Our boy Jeff NAILED the interior, I cannot stress how gaga everyone has been over the interior. There is so much to say about this car, I will let Mark chime in with more details, but long story short, this is a show killer that will be out on the circuit in 2011 starting with the cruel Ecklers Winter Nationals 1000 point judging in February. We ain't scared a bit!
And no worries boys, once mark gets his 990 points..........He is going to drive the wheels off it!
Congratulations and Thank You Mark!
The Second debut car is my own Just bring It Street Racer. Well, it is not exactly new, some of you have seen this car around for years. It has done many RTTHs event including the Pro Touring cruise! But it is all new now with a ton of modifications and updates. JBI has been a totally streetable low 9 second car since 1996 when we first built it for Michaels 15 and 16 year old brothers to race. Michael raced this car on his 15th birthday, went 10.90 on the motor, hell of a 15th birthday! While a totally streetable ride, I wanted it a bit more civilized, so we installed a bangin sound system, we added one of our custom Prodigy / Vintage Air Gen IV kits, Built a custom March Style Trac to work with the Evac pup and electric water pump, built one of our core supports with dual 16" fans including transmission and oil coolers that would cool the Space Shuttle exhaust! We added Speedtech control arms and did the redrill Gulstrand mod. All 4 corners were treated to Wilwood 12.2" (6) piston front / (4) piston rear.
We blacked out all the trim with black anodize and lightweight aluminum bumpers in Matte black. What really sets it off is the Debut of Prodigy / Forgeline new Drag Series wheels! 18 X 12 rears combines with 17 X 4 front are wrapped with 345 / 35 / 18 and 17 X 450 front M and H Racemaster Drag Radials. The response to the wheels has been..........incredible!
JBI has run consistent low 9s for years, but with the added weight of the new creature comforts, and with aspirations of going high 8s, a new NOS system from NX was added. So instead of one 300 shot, JBI now has 2 shots of NOS, tuned at 300HP and 200HP respectively!
So it is not Pro Touring, but a pretty cool car non the less. Drag week, here we come!
The other 2 Prodigy Cars on special display are well known to al of you. Will and Shanna's Back in Black Convertible and Ted's infamous bull Run Racer.
