I think this should be awsome site.I just joined and think its about time there was a forum for those who are not brain dead and think they have to run engine in rear of car.
Ok I got to rant some. Been catching crap for past year or so about building a FED seems these bracket guiys think that unless the engine is behind you car can't win race I plan on changing few minds on that.
Im build 225" fed with 526 TFX hemi to run and will be mostly bracket raced with hopefully some nostalgia racing also. Biggest issue for me is the engine combo . The aluminum block limits some of class' I can run it in. Chassis is built to meet 2.2c spec. I have been getting info from some guy named Parks. Hes great for giving info anf helping in anyway,plus he carries about anything you want for FED.
Its been slow go becuase of low cash flow lately,but I'm gaining on it.
A quik introduction. I have raced alky funny and daragster mostly crewchief(StarrRider Funny car Named after Alan Starr a good friend of family).I had some driving in and TA/D and ran good numbers but then again the money thing showed up. Been out of racing for while and basically got tired of life going by and being boring so as Paul Newman said In movie "Color of Money " I'M BACK. Been called cocky I call it good and confident.Its only cocky if you can't back it up.
I figure if you can to spend money like this it has to be fun. Being normal has never been me. I'm something of showman and what better way to steal the show than being one car totaly different for everyone else. Around here seeing a FED in brackets is like seeing a sapce ship land. Plus they are some badass looking rides and just plain cool. Any freaking whimp can ride down track,real men drive the cars.
a pic of where Im at right now and no injectors not finished along with a lot of other stuff.
