I really like that hotrod. Unfortunately, they're a little too proud of it... too rich for my wallet. :cry:

I don't know what they have in that particular car, but when they first came out with the kit, it was about $10,000 just for the basic chassis and body kit.

Pricey for breaking into a starter kit, the frame lightening strategy looks good but wonder if they went too far structurally unless they are now running thicker frames at Speedway?

Seems like they said at the Nationals that the new kits don't have the holes, or they're smaller, or something. Check with them, if you're interested.
