This is my son's bracket drag car.  It weights 2650 pounds, trips the quarter mile clocks at 9.96 seconds @ 134 mph.  It was built from scratch (father/son) with a roll over Camaro and finished as a '92 Trans Am.  The engine is a small block 406 cid coupled with a Lenco 4-speed clutchless trans through a Ford 9" rear differential.  One bad result is for me to stand on the fence and watch my son go by (butterflies that is). ::bounce
