Default David Wolfe runs 4.40's on Drag Radials
with a new BBC powerplant and Sonny Big Chief cylinder heads reworked by Chris Frank of Frankenstein Racing heads. Those guys are flat out FLYYYYYYING!

That's what makes it awesome, making the power isn't every thing, it's applying it just right to keep going faster then every one else is what makes it so pimp.

No doubt about it. David is a smart m/fer. It's crazy to watch him in the tuning process.

That's incredible. You can tell a lot of time was spent getting that car right. It's impressive to say the least.

this car proves wheel stands are inefficient, as well as most pro cars. This car just hooks and goes straight down track, transfers max weight to the rear without lifting the front too much.

Haha thats even more impressive. I would have figured they spent alot of time getting the suspension right to get it to hook. Those guys really know what they are doing.
