Have any you guys looked at my sons video?earlier post


How about the magazine articles?



I found this baseline run on the Caprice, I was just curious. Tincher and my son David had went to the test on a Wednesday night, so I made a pass.


18.13 @ 77.76 mph

Ernie....loved the video and the pics. To do a car like this after what you normally build and race had to be both fun and challenging. The results speak for themselves! -Al

Wonder what SS Class a 5.7 LT-1 would run?
Weigh would be closer to 4000 lbs.

thanks Alan, much appreciated. Yes, it was considerably different. I short cut things as much as possible to get it completed. I made my goal, so I couldn't be more pleased with it.
Looks like you making headway with your Nova as well.
