The DRAG CAR Challenge

I don't care if Worpex enters that thing. It's gonna lose anyway.

Yep. Probably will. I entered it in the Featherweight Challenge I and it lost there, can't see why this would be any different!

Edit: CRAP it doesn't meet the weight limits. LOL can't enter it anyway.

WorpeX, find a pro-stock....it will help the brackets.

Also a couple of angry looking Bugs showed up today. Clifford Shaw racing, but the green funny bug will not roll. Right front tire is rubbing the body. If it's ok, I'll see what I can do to right that situation.

Hi Traction Event,

Thanks for the post. I'm going to have to start shipping in hard cases! Here's a couple of suggestions on the fender rub for the green VW.
1) make sure the body is sitting straight on the chassis, there's a very small contact point front and center where everything balances right. Because it is prone to slide off-center I considered cementing it all down but thought I should stay true to the "funny car flop" and keep a working hinge.

2) If it got crunched in shipping and won't align correctly, use the tried and true pit remedy to fender rubbing tire - bend the fender! don't worry about looks or paint, as you may have noticed, that's not my thing.

thanks for whatever doctoring you can do.

just got a johnny lightning '59 Desoto fireflight ?

gonna be my crysler entry ;

Are you posting in the wrong thread again?

yup !

the green funny bug is track worthy...no more wheel rub.

The only other thing I could find is a mediocre Iroc Firebird. No wheelie Bar or parachute though... looks like a Pro Stock car though!

This may have been answered already, but are were running these cars in two separate groups or as one group?
