Any New Factory Stock Cars Being Built?
 
Is anyone aware of any new Factory Stock Shootout cars being built? If so does anyone have photos of the new cars?


I've heard Don Fezzel and Chris Holbrook are building new cars. Anyone else? Brand doesn't matter...

We've just got our 2017 COPO set up to run in FS/AA for this season, we'll see what direction we decide to go come fall, definitely going to be upping to a 7.5 second cage over the winter and see what else if we wanna go that route.

Index in FS/AA is 9.40. At 8.49 you will need the 7.50 SFI cage. Just going to go slow this summer?

Same car 2017 Copo but I can't wait . I ran 8.49 this weekend at the pacific open and I am having PMR do the 7.50 Cert cage right after the points meet in LV I am hoping nhra expands the factory showdown to the west coast for next season. Besides the rule running 160-170 MPH on a 9 inch tire the funny car cage gives a bit more confidence that I will be around to see the showdown class expand next season.

Jody, at the Dutch Classic last October; I was told by a very reliable source, that Don's new car was at JDM Engineering being prepped to go testing in preparation for the 2018 season. He was entered for Gainesville as a 2008 Cobra Jet, which really doesn't mean anything, and he withdrew just before the deadline. That's all I know at this time.

Jason Dietsch just had his new CJ built by Watson Racing.

Roy Hill has a “16 engine” combination built by Kaase.

Lot of upgrades to a lot of cars with some switching back and forth on engine builders.

Not sure what Bo Butner is building this week.... was putting together a new car also lol

I've heard of two COPOs being built, rumor has it they may be gold and black.
