cool video, cool car, anyone if the owner is a member?
Daniel's Day at the Races


Hers some info from hotrodhotline:

Our next stop was another MOPAR, this one if the form of a nasty looking 1971 Challenger RT.  The factory 340, four speed car was being converted into a Trans AM SCCA race car as well as a loose tribute of the Sam Posey “Classic Wax Challenger.”  The list of upgrades on the Challenger is extensive and radical, but here a few:
- A fuel injected 408 stoker small block backed by a TKO 500 Tremec 5 speed
- Canton Racing oiling system with Accusump to maintain oil pressure equilibrium
- Moser custom fabricated 8 ¾ rear end housing, center section, and axles
- RMS alterKtion front suspension
-AFCO dual adjustable coil over spring front and rear
- XV Motorsports rear suspension
- Independent master cylinders for the brakes and clutch
- Functional cooling ducts for the brakes
- Functional ram air hood.

Love it!  :ylsuper: :bigshades:   great to see one being used for what it was built for!  :2thumbs:
So.... you get a black flag for getting loose?  :clueless: :dunno: That flagman would never cut it in circle track racing!  :lol:

How else are you supposed to know the limits unless you push it to them?
