Default TT5 nova

Here is a few pictures of a TT5 car I work on. Usually we run a Pontiac Ventura but for some reason it would not get out of the 5.30 range no matter how much we sprayed or the changes we made on the 7531 box. Last weekend Kenny Hubbard told us to take his Nova and see how it does, with a 505 we went a 5.31 @ 134... After the TT5 event Dustin got with Kenny and we decided to take the motor out of the Ventura and put the 622 in the Nova to see how it does. Dustin and I spent about 4 hours yesterday swapping motors so hopefully we can get into the 5 teens. The 622 makes about 200 more HP naturally aspirated than the 505. We have 1 more race this year and they are doing double points and right now we are tied for #5 so we need all we can get.

No, we are just using it. Dustin's car is in a desire need of some up-grading because the chassis can not handle the power the motor makes. Dusting has been talking with Kenny about a partnership for next years event...

It did make me sick cutting that hood for the carbs.

No, just an old school backhalf car. We can't afford a 25.2 chassis

Here are some pictures of my car I sold a few months ago. I was ready to get out of racing at this level so I sold off everything to build a street car to have fun in. I love the outlaw racing classes and have just as much fun helping as I did racing.

The car I give a hand with is just a small step up from tt5, bottom feeders of the outlaw 10.5 world to be honest lol.

Just a 25.5 Ladder bar SBF with a single turbo car that can't complete with the 25.2 Big Block Alcohol blower and turbo cars. Should hopefully be making some test hits next sunday.

Chad - as far as I know he's only gone in the .40's not into the 30's much less 20's. The only two cars I know to dip into the 20's on 10.5 W's at Outlaw weight are Lynch and GMac.

I tried to find what Kenny ran, Maybe it was a .39. I know Todd Moyer went a 4.19 in his Extreem outlaw Car.
