JuicedH22 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 The car has been through quite a bit of changes, thought CR was as good of a place as any to share it. The car will transition back to racing with turns. I had fun at the drag strip thing, but I just enjoy road racing more. I am building the car to do the Pro-Touring style thing, for street car events, primarily the Optima Ultimate Street Car series, LS Fest Grand Champion competition, and other events like Midwest Musclecar Challenge. I am keeping the nitrous, for use at events that have a drag racing portion/competition, and to still have some fun at things like Friday Night Lightz and Cincy Street Wars.... Engine 416 c.i.
