Say... if you're not using your Danny Bee...

Looking nice, is the car still all steel body? whats it weigh?

That is nice!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice.

Bruno , the car always has been this long 108"wb 25.1E,it's just that I had to build a new fender and change some front tubes after a altercation with the wall at 180mph , and yes it's a all steel bodied car ,were a heavy weight at 2850lbs with driver with my 600 but with my new all aluminum 712 we should have a fighting weight of about 2750lbs('')

the c6 moves that weight very well!

I'd love to be at 2850 lol

sure most of the guy's I'm running against are at 2250 -2350lbs ,that's giving them a 500 lbs weight advantage
Frank

You gotta give them some kind of advantage...or they won't want to play
