It is N/A. I will be picking it up Friday in the AM. Serial number 6.

(I think it is a great showcase for the Holley intake!)

I can't promise that I will take it down the track. Understand that this car has not even been tested at the plant yet. They were waiting on the delivery of a part yesterday!

I think you might need to carry a super soaker or something to keep folks from putting their paws on it.

if any of you know Daren if he could take his COPO down the track at the LS Fest he would. Racing runs through this man's veins and from the conversation I had with him over dinner it sounded like this is a life long dream for him to race a purpose built factory drag car.

if you want to race one down the track go out and buy one and bring it.
