Default Re: Mopar To Release Lost A-Body 1/4 Mile Test Results

There was tons of information exchanged between MOPAR cars and the Corporation in the early days. MOPAR published letters and books with all the information in them. When I started building our Duster, a couple of years ago, I found out about the books and newsletters. I got a hold of a copy of a book on just the suspension modifications. At the Drag Race Reunion in Henderson I was discussing the information in the book with a factory, MOPAR car builder and he told me that if a team car designed something that worked, meaning kept them in front of the other manufacturer's, then the Corporation would send out letters to all of the "team car" giving them all of the information necessary to build and set-up the parts. As he said the Corporation did not care which car was in the winners circle on Sunday as long as it was a MOPAR. They swapped and changes tons of pieces on those cars from week-end to week-end.
