Let's see the builds or rebuilds!!!!
Imp 2.0 will officially be retired when it returns home as it has a soft spot with me as Keith Hines (Retro Racer44) and I talked about this car off line and in posts. He never got the chance to build the one I sent him. V2.0 was a consistent 4th-5th place finisher, I believe Imp v3.0 has podium potential but it is a handful at 20k. It will have Windows soon.....and paint

I think U2 is going to be tough next year..... Some of the 21k motors are like an on/off switch in a small car.
I'm looking at the NSR "Spanish" 20k with the low torque.... (and balanced) - but I don't know.... Tough to resist putting the max allowed in there just to try and power past the IMP at least on a straight!!
I already have the next bimmer shell painted - so I'm ahead on that front.... Once I get along a little more I'll post some pictures! (right now it's too many ideas...)

I may have found my entries. 2016 Pony Car Wars veterans. They are already Piranha powered. Since I now have Olifer chassis for the Cuda it will get tested with the #89 body that ran in the 2017 Trans-Am series. My top finishing Challenger will also get some tweaks. The two car limit will reveal which of the 4 cars make it into the grid.
Man what a difference a little polish did to the #42 the #48 will get the same treatment if it makes the field.
MOPAR or NOCAR 8-)

I think this will be one of my 2018 entries. It was built as one anyway. A Scale Auto Alfa with a scratchbuilt Brass chassis using an Avant 180 Hunter motor

Should be a runner, that's for sure! Good luck with it.

Both of these have been rebuilt, they have the 21.5K motor, the Mustang has been changed to a sidewinder configuration.
I lowered them both and added a little weight and wider tires.
They both ran in the bottom 25% last year. It will be interesting to see where they run this year.
The Mustang may get some paint if I can find the time.
