CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Any new Stock Super Stock Cars being build for 2012?

We (my Dad and I) are building a '72 Duster so we can try to start class racing in 2012. The current goal is to get out bracket racing with a non-legal motor in the spring and then drop in a legal low comp 340 during the season. If that happens we'll probably run some East Coast S/SS events and maybe make it to a divisional...if not, 2013.

Ken Kopecky got us going in the right direction and gave me a lot of advice on buidling the car earlier this year. Tom Goldman did the chassis work over the summer and has been invaluable on setup tips. So far we've got the chassis, suspension, rear, brakes and fuel system done; working on wiring now and then we'll get the interior finished before putting the driveline in and completing final assembly. Stil need wheels, tires, headers and driveshaft, but we're getting close. It's gonna be tight with the work schedule, but we should be done sometime in February.

I'll post some pictures on the build in another thread after we get a little further along.
