Very nice.

Does it run and stick to the track fairly well?

Runs decent, before the cam /intake/carb change it was 292 rwhp, dry weight is 2800 lbs, so it is good for mid 12's with some drag slicks.

It slides alot on the twisty tracks, it take a little while to get use to it, however this is what makes it fun (for me), throttle sterring with the backend is a blast.
This will be the first year I run with a pan hard bar on it, so it will take a few laps to figure out where I like it the most.


Latest project updates - I have to go back to te old Dura Spark ignition system, luckily I still have my OE distributor and picked up some dura spark boxes and wiring from a local junkyards for a few bucks.
OE distributor is back in and starting to tear out the dash plates to rewire for the dura spark.
Also pulled out my old fuel cell and getting ready to order a new Fuel Safe 22 gallon cell, I will be rewelding the under cell braces as the new one will be a little shorter than my current 22 gallon.
