    Roadtrip to Roadkill Zip Tie Drags 2020

    That you for that pic of my lil bucket. I’m going to blow it up and frame it! This was my 2nd year and I had a blast, again! We met the young guy with the 74 D100 at Irwindale. It had a 2010 5.7 hemi attached to an A833 overdrive trans. It ran great with no issues all way to Tucson and back...

    Fall Fling

    Thanks! I really like it! It's different and it's light. It moves pretty good for what it is. Yep! I have a little rubbing on the rears but I live with it. Once I get the cash together for the rear end swap (narrowed 8.8), I'll be changing the wheels. I'll probably run torque thrust M's or VN215's

    Fall Fling

    Thanks! It's a work in progress. That was the first time in over 12yrs that car made any kind of road miles. Took a small miracle to make it. The best part about that car is it's a 273/4spd. It's a fun little driver!
