If you aren’t familiar with Factory Appearing Stock Tire, then you are welcome because you are about to see what they are all about. We’re talking about big block powered muscle cars that have to look factory fresh with very, very, few exceptions. Stock appearing under the hood AND on factory tires. By factory, I mean bias plys G or F polyglas reproductions. These cars leave hard with big power and run in the 9’s! Check out the video and you’ll understand how nuts this is.

Video Description:

FAST Frostbite Nationals at Martin Michigan, We tried some new things and learned a bunch. The 67 ended up breaking and we couldn’t get it fixed in time. It did not like the drag radial! We need a few more times to the track to get it dialed in with the sticky tire!

    How do you keep the “Center Section” or “Third member” together? I’ve been racing my 73 Corvette conv. sence 1977. I use “9 1/2″ slicks, a Continal 9″ converter. I went to ”3 1/2” inch half-shafts, Dana 60 U-Joints, limit the squat in the rear of the car to dead level. I have broke my third member twice, only running 11.84, my best. YOU GUYS are going much faster than that, with out any problems. Can you help a fellow DRAG-RACER out, tell me what you use for the rear-end? –PLEASE HELP ME MISTER WIZARD, YOU ARE MY ONLY HOPE!– {I see that you guys are taking it easy for the first 10ft., and then rolling into it….is that it?}
