Seeking some technical advice
Guys, I'm trying to help a friend get into S/S or Stock racing. He recently came into some money & is looking at a V-10 Drag Pak Challenger. Yes, I know it's expensive ( he's also buying a T/S car!
 ) but he can afford it. Just what class do these things run in? Who are the "go to" people for V-10 race engines? Just how successful are these cars, really? He's a big Mopar fan but I just can't see throwing money at this thing unless he has some chance of being successful. Myself & another guy have some experience in the Super classes but now we've been asked to help (possibly) with this effort. Any opinions? |

Re: Seeking some technical advice
If you're looking for hp the Barton's make some very fast dodges! The BB/SA record was just set by one of their engines in a V10 challenger.

Re: Seeking some technical advice
Our Arrow Racing engine is very good - we ran 9.12 in air not nearly as good with a 2spd - they (Jonathan Allegrucci) had a three speed to set the record
I like guys who have built many many V10s - even drag racing ones Ron

Re: Seeking some technical advice
I have #3 #8 & #9 new untouched that are for sale. I also have two Arrow motors. I have also run 9.02, 9.03 several times with a glide and up to 149.79. I also have four legal 3 speeds, & anything else V10. And direct access to Arrow and spare parts.
