Designed for stadium racing, this buggy featured a unique direct drive concept designed by Mickey Thompson, John House, Nye Frank, and Tom Jobe of “Surfers” drag racing fame. Power is transmitted through a B&M torque converter through a gear drive, a Lenco reverser, and into a Dana 70 rear axle prepared by Henry’s Machine and Jack Chrisman. Suspension is handled by M/T springs and shocks in front, with 6-foot long three stage air shocks in the rear.
