Definition
Pro Street is a style of street-legal custom car popular in the 1980s, usually built to imitate a Pro Stock class race car. Pro Street cars should appear to be more at home on the drag strip than the street, while remaining street legal and not gutted like a Race Car or Bracket Race car. Typically called a Back-half car (tubbed).
Cars of this type typically feature two of the following three modifications:
- A highly modified V8.
- A narrowed rear axle coupled with oversized rear wheels & at least a 14" wide x 5+” sidewalls tire (located within the wheelwells) for maximum grip and wheelie bars.
- A roll cage.
Other than the rear suspension and wheel wells, cars of this type often remain unmodified from the firewall back, keeping stock floorpans, a full interior with windshield wipers, carpet, and working lights.
