COPOs - Where are they ??

[Sean Marconette]

This is also the first full season for the COPO. You have to keep in mind that the deliveries didn't start until late last year. Not a lot of time to dial in a new combination. I think you will see a lot more racing as the year goes on.

I must be completely clueless. I thought the DP's, COPO's and CJ's were all ready to hit the track upon delivery and be competitive?
I am not trying to be disrespectful, but what has to be done to these cars to hit the track? Patterson had a COPO out last year before Indy if I recall. Heck other than adjusting the seat and being acclimated to the car, what else are you having to do after spending that kind of money on one of these? Hell if I win the lottery I want to know what I am getting myself into on one of these!

The 2009 and 2010 Drag Paks were "kit cars". Body in white, engine and a boat trailer axle for loading into your trailer. 2011's came as a complete car.

From experience, I can tell you that my COPO was very good as delivered. That said, there are quite a few things that can be done to improve the performance.
