Pro Touring '69 Chevelle build thread

[SS427]

We first met at Dean Ribich's Chevelle gathering and barbeque back around 2001 and I have been following you since that time. Saying it has been an amazing journey for you would be an understatement. Watching you from the beginning I thought it was more of a pipe dream of yours, years later I earned more and more respect for your skills and determination and have now added you to the list of professional drivers in various auto sports that we know, watch and cheer for. You have some amazing talent. Keep it up and keep passing it along to your sons the way your dad did for you.

How fast are the racers running for the drag racing portion?

Thanks Rick! The respect is mutual!

The quick guys in vintage class are low/mid-11s on 200tw street tires

The quick guys in late-model class are low-11s, but a brand new completely stock (except 200tw tires) E-Ray Corvette with AWD hybrid was I think the first to get into the 10s.
