Default HPP Article on Ronnie Duke's T/A

Great article! If you don't have a copy, I suggest you all pick one up. Amazing setup. Congrats to Wheel to Wheel and everyone involved in building it. I couldn't find the article on the High Performance Ponitac website if it appears, please post a link.

At least the proper credit was given to Wheel to Wheel and their efforts. Too bad he didn't mention that Kurt was the pilot that made it happen

Congrats to all involved in that car. It appears to be an impressive machine. It was the cover on GM high tech. I haven't read the HPP article on it yet but I plan to.

I assumed from their length that they were custom made. I have a pair of CE bars that are shorter. Is Ronnie a user of this site? If yes, what is his name?

might be easier to talk to the man who built it
427 = Kurt (the man behind the wheel.)
(and wheel to wheel.)

We're making progress here. I need a set of wheelie bars for my 2001 Camaro SS, which has a new Moser 9-inch Ford rearend. Kurt . . . ?

Those are one off. If the car was here we could do it. You need to find a local chassis shop cause the shipping would kill you!
