Default Sneak Peak
Since I decided to do away with a street car, here's the new ride I picked up a month ago to strictly race. I just got the parachute mount kit from skinney kids race cars, it should be a blast.

Justin the interior is bare, but the engine is your basic Super Vic with the Accufab 4150 carb style throttle body. Nothing special, hopefully it makes the grade.
