Mopar Mack is a 61 year old kid... I'm full time employed in the Dairy Services and Supplies business... I travel 9 SE states and Puerto Rico. I'm normally gone from Monday thru Thursday. Unless I'm needing more time for a race.... I re-started my racing career in 2000. All the kids were at least finishing college and I could see the light at the end of the tunnel...
Bought a 70 Plymouth Duster from a VERY good friend... This was a former SS car that had gone thru many changes....
Bought a 1968 Formula S big block car in 2005....
Sold the Duster in 2006....
Bought a tube chassis 1968 Barracuda in 2007 with a 340 and a 4 speed...
Sold the 340 and 4 speed and put in a BB automatic....
Sold the tube car in 2008...
Submitted my application for a Challenger Drag Pak in August of 2008.... Learned in May of 2009 I was in the first 100..... Learned in August of 2009 that I was in the first 50..... Picked up the Car in Lavonia Mi November 23 2009..... Build continues...... Wow, doesn't see so long ago I was writing this the first time... The Challenger build took two years and its now on the track... We are still working out the gremlins..... Hopefully we are about done with them...
Its now been almost three years and we are still at it... This year has been very challenging at the least.... We have had tranny troubles from the start. We lost three by the time we were at the Gator Nationals. We were trying to use a e-shift but I guess I'm just not smart enough to make it work. I sent it back and had it checked eact time and was told it was fine... The last time I got it back I left it in the box and its still there... I now have over 25 passes on the tranny and all is well.... Hopefully that is behind us now...
Still trying to get more speed out of the car... I know that is everybodys goal but I do feel we are missing something somewhere just not sure where...
