Default Few photos....Ohio Boys new race cars have begun

Mike and Steve asked to post some progress photos. Both of these cars are going to be drag radial cars. We are doing a 25.5 cage for each. I am sure they will provide additional information.

Same old stuff out of the old Formula will go in the red one. Most of the stuff will come out of the CE and go in the white one. Which won't be staying that way. Both will have 101's.

Mike is putting the CE back to street duty for the girlfriend. The car only has about 5000 miles on it. Oh yeah, and a few 1/4 mile passes

Mike and Steve did the mini-tubbing. Those guys are doing most of the work to the cars. Just brought them to us for cages.

Like Todd said. I'm putting it together with parts I've got in the garage for my girlfriend to drive and race. It will have a 5.3 with a 4L60E. That will get a little extra power from a TTI street kit with a 70mm. Were still leaving the cage in it just in case.
Going to be a busy winter around here.

The 88/98 was changed to a true 98 before the Formula crash. It is on my car now. The 91.5 and the 98 will be sent to Jose for freshining and bigger wheels.

So Mike, would you be running more cubes than you have in the past? Seems like that DR class allows 4__ci stuff if I recall, I don't remember the specific rules.
