Figured i'd put up some pictures over the last little bit..
So one of my favorite pictures is this one: I got to go home for my birthday and went racing! I'm going to school in Sacramento still.
ME and my dad got to race each other 3 times that night. 2 time runs, then we dialed in later and of course, he schooled me up... he went .001 on me. We both made it to the final 8 cars though.
Yep, car is just a little old street driven mopar
The 2nd to last picture, i won a race in Sacramento. My parents drove down and surprised me with my car. Drove 850 miles so i could run one race! Same day i also got to dyno my car at school, it put down right around 400 whp and 390 lbs tq.
I figured on more but can't be too sure till I can get it onto another dyno and see what happens from there.
Link to the dyno vid and one of the rounds of me beating up on a 14 sec Srt4...

Yes, I blew the trans in the burnout box at Mopars at the Strip in 2008.
Yes, I put a bolt in sprag when I built the new transmission. Along with other goodies. And i have ran a kevlar blanket since.

Good to hear the old Dart is still hanging in there !!!!!
The 1955 Chevy sounds like a fun project.... 327 c.i. with a 4-speed and 4.11.... Kind of sounds like your going to have fun with ether antique nationals or nostalgia racing?
Keep us posted on the fun...
