Unfinished Business

[gmonde]

so heres an idea,,instead of Toyota daily drivers ,use cars that relate to the drag racer ,, not the factory show down cars but equally prepped cars ,, like colbalts/focuses/neons with factory v8 spec motors, pick a brand ! big inch crate motors set up with efi that the computers are interchange it through out the fleet of cars ,it would be cool to see one of the 4(Toyota,ford,chevy,dodge) step up with a motor/trans package with a chassis builder to build 8 cars the same (yeah here we go with the template issue ,but might be something ) ,, kinda of the iroc series of the past ,automatic cars that are impounded and assigned to drivers at the time of the race with a name change and seat adjustment
say a 11.00 car ,, just thinking out loud ,,thoughts? positive only !

Equally prepared stock Dodge Challenger 1320 models would have been better.
They run high 11's and low 12's and come with automatics with trans brakes

Dan, please explain just how Toyota supporting Drag Racing is or is going to affect me? All that I'm going to see is the year-end profit statement looking good and the B-O-Ds giving themselves another un-deserved raise!

Rear wheel drive Camaros, Mustangs or Challengers, with moderate stall converters so they can leave in a timely manner off the brakes! Have one of the name shops prepare 9 or 10 carsd (one or two alternates), and dial them in within a couple of hundredths of each other.. It would make for a much more compelling show. If they have to do this.
