Budget drag car… B-Body or A-Body?

Personally I don't have 5K to put into a car I plan on blowing up in a weekend...
To me that is a pretty strong budget for a weekend...
And it's no kind of decent budget expecting the kind of power that's going to put your world on fire...
And definitely nothing in that price range is going to be worthy of any kind of heads up racing...
Now if you want to go win races weekend after weekend bracket racing you can go by the cheapest rusted out four-door slant six automatic you can find...
Take it to the drag strip and slam it to the floor and drive for your three test runs and get a solid consistent dial and time and go out and kill um ..
