Wheels up

[Ricky Racer]

Just received these pictures with front wheels off the ground and a big smokey burnout. I’m still fairly new at this bracket racing game (3 years). Though I’m not winning very much I’m still learning and getting better every week. Good track prep is key to launching this big heavy car consistently.

Just like the Demon commercials! Stock or modified?

Very cool! I always wanted a Hemi wheel stander.

Final round at Woodburn dragstrip yesterday for the modern muscle class. No personal best runs but had a great day. Car ran perfect every run. I went to the semi final round and got taken out by this guy that cut a .003 light. Stiff competition! This track is the best track in my area, prep is top notch, car hooked every time, very professionally run, and they finally opened up there scale so I weighed my car on every run. (4135) , that’s with driver, helmet, fire jacket, and a quarter tank of fuel. Car ran 9.90’s all day in 80 degree heat. Picture is my last run where I got beat.

Ricky’s total weight seems a little low? It would make it under 4,000 lbs without the driver. It has to be one of the lightest Challengers out there?

Guess the Bureau of weights and measures better take a look @ Ricky's scale...
