Superformance vs Contemporary

[CobraMike]

Hello Guys,

Quick questions about CCX3-3753, is the hood scoop correct for a race replica? Sure looks like a nicely prepped Contemporary. I'm guessing it would hit mid 10's the quarter mile?

TIA,
Mike

Scoop is a little high for a replica, however, a change of air cleaner and you could put a stock height hood scoop right back on it........That was what I had planned to do. As for the 1/4 mile, sorry, not my thing as I'm a road racer through and through

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I like both types of racing, we don't really have any road tracks in Iowa that I'm aware of. Lot's of straigt roads!

Cheers

Thanks for the nice comments Bill. I did not buy the car but traded a Vintage race car for it, sorry I got to it before all of your vintage items sold!

I did have the car at the drag strip last week and turned a 10.87 before they kicked me out for not having the correct safety gear for a 10 sec. car. I am not a 1/4 mile guy, just a curious road racer.

I was impressed how the car planted, my chassis guy who did a upgaded roll bar for me (who builds mostly drag cars) says it would coat 15-20k to reproduce the rear end. Donavan motorsports did a awesome job, it has 0 body roll on the road course.

Thanks again for the comments Bill, if not for my son I would keep the car.

Jeff,

Those items didn't sell as I did not want to put them up back then, now that the car is for sale again, I am game if you are .......
