Cool pic, Paul.
Thanks for sharing it with the gang.
Wagons always made great dragcars.

Sadly, that's why there are so few of them left for the rest of us...

Quinn,
I gotta agree with you there. They've either been used for drag racing or demolition derby roundy round events. You wonder how many wagons have met their fate that way..as a result, less survivors. It is sad.

That is the perfect example of a car that could benefit from taller ball joints. The camber change would be less, as would the toe change.

When a tall BJ car is at full droop, they won't have a couple degrees of Negative camber, like in the photo.

Maybe it could dial a 12.11 or 12.10 :)

Drag racers and road racers could learn a lot from each other.

Thats Jody Lang's NHRA stocker. He is one of the best Stock/Super stock racers in the country. Whats impressive is that is a 305 car with the stock intake carb, compression, cam specs, heads, rockers, and can go low 12's. I like his other car. The 81 Super Stocker that is a little more radical on the rules, but still using a 305 .
