This is a new FG GT drag car built in the states by Jerry Bickel, who builds a lot of NHRA pro stockers. Veeeeeeeeery smooth

From what I can work out, it looks like they have made a carbon body to suit one of there say GTO pro stock chassis, because when you look at the roof line and stuff, its heavily modified.

funny how the v8sc's are considered too nascar'ish by many, but this is lauded as a fg?
as awesome as it obviously is, it has about as much fg in it as your average excel... |

I like it a lot.
It is a refreshing change tosee a current (shape) Falcon sedan in the class. 900 cubes is ludicrous, and I love it. Is there such a thing as a hipo 1000+ cuber????

you won't find many of these cars looking like the Factory car. when you are going 200+mph in 6-seconds, that is the last thing on your mind this car below is supposed to look like a Mustang, but, when you want to get every bit of aerodynamics and run 260mph+ and 5-sec 1/4's it goes out the window. |

The racer looks damn hot. Should run some very stout numbers. I'm interested to know what class he will be running? Cheers.
