Project Car: Pro Stock Bike Champ Eddie Krawiec's Drag Radial 2000 CamaroBy Brian Lohnes Posted 02/22/2010
2008 NHRA Full Throttle Pro Stock Motorcycle Champion Eddie Krawiec and DMC Racing have teamed up to build a bad ass 2000 Camaro for Drag Radial class racing. When completed, the car will sport a 454ci LSX mill force fed by a 106mm single turbo. DMC's expertise in the small tire drag car world will be put to the test, as this car will wear a pair of 275 radials to get all that power to the ground. The Camaro under the knife had only 4,500 original miles on it when DMC started filling it full of chrome-moly tube. As wild as his Pro Stock Harley is, this Camaro will be every bit its ragged edge equal. BangShift.com will be following every step of this kick ass build. Read More >

Project Car: Complete Buildup Photos of the First F.A.S.T. Mopar in the 10sBy Brian Lohnes Posted 01/4/2010
Regular readers got to know BangShift.com member Joel Nystrum several weeks ago when we had a video of him powershifting his 30,000-mile original Hemi GTX on an 11-second pass. That was one 1967 Plymouth GTX, and this is another, though this one is a clone. That's because Joel's goal was to build the ultimate Factory Appearing Stock Tire race car. And he did. Joel's car became the first F.A.S.T. racer to run 10s. And that's 10.92 on stock bias-ply tires, with factory appearance down to the casting numbers. Read More >
