Ok let me know on it.

Where in texas are you Located? Any underhood pics? I am actually looking right now.

This will be Dave's last season doing the chassis and suspension seminars. If you haven't gone this will be the last chance. Great information from a great guy!

There is going to be a lot of fiberglass and lexan in your future. I would also look at lightening the front K member a bit and aluminum heads. That is where the biggest part of weight savings are going to come from. I (on a car I used to have) cut out all the excess metal below the 1/4 window...

How crazy do you want to get? You could turn it into a 2100 lb car if you really want to.

I had a 73 duster that was a 360 with 904 and 8 3/4 with street tires, one RCI front seat no p/s seat and it did have the rear seat in the car all steel car and with me in it it weighed 3030 if that helps.

Believe it or not it really didn't seem that bad from where I was. Kinda all went in slow motion. I used to be stationed at Schofield out there. Thanks for serving.:prayer: You from out here?

Hey when you are a hired gun and don't have to pay for any of it you don't grip too much about whats in it!:D

If it is strictly a race car that you trailer to the track then no. But like was said it really wouldn't hurt if you use a car that does have a title and you photo progress from the begining just for insurance sakes.

It should be a 10 ga. Remember that you can not have too big of a wire. You can have too small of one.

Yeah it is. I talked to a guy that has been running the Nostalgia jr fuel cars for years and he told me its not a matter of want with these things you have to run them. So I will be building a set over the winter.

Here is my opinion. I literally grew up in racing. 2 days old sitting in the tower of the old Houston track. If you do not want to buy a car from someone that is already done and you want to build one look at it like this: 1. Build more car than you "think" you will ever run. 2. Even if you...

I am going to do a couple of things. I am going to build a weight bar that we can add or remove weight (should be all I have to do). Going to wire in a manual over ride for the electric shifter, and also set it up to where I can pull timing out when I release the trans brake. I will only pull...

It actually has gone straight the other 10 passes or so we have on it. That was just a freak of nature kinda deal. The second pass it left straight and just kept going up and up til I lifted. We have started adding more power and that tends to bring out the little kinks that weren't there before.

Little nostalgia dragster excitement - YouTube We only made the two passes. But I was wide awake after words!
