This car will not be streetable. It is literally a dead copy of the AMS drag car, only MUCH cleaner, nicer, and well sorted out. I wont be getting as crazy with cutting brackets, rear shelf, and parts of the unibody out so this car may be a little heavier.

Upon completion, I think I will be going to the track with Gabe, sorting the car out, making some shakedown runs, and help him get his NHRA competition license to legally race it. Jumping into a car that has the capability of running well over 170 mph without some practice might be a bit scary!

Eric, what was the weight on your drag car and now this drag car?

Im suprised there is a second seat in place of what would normally be a large cooler
