He has cruised it on the street, with slicks(!) but mainly races it. 502 with a big solid when these pics were taken, bigger solid roller now. Straight axle, all-metal flip frontend, Richmond 5 speed, Dana 60 with 4:88, 4500 rpm launch, dump it and hang on, full-power shift to 2nd, picks them up about 6 inches second time. WAHOO! I've driven it and it's mean.

Here's a pass, pulled them higher (and back up again in second) before he added the wheelie bars but the landings could be rough, runs tens, only 'glass is the front bumper
