I can't believe it, what a loss. You and Cris were so close to the 9s!!

There are a couple people selling RX-3s locally but thy probably want too much. There was one that just sold off of crags list that went for $500 .

If you don't mind me asking what happened exactly?

Thanks for OSW for having great track prep like always. 13sec cars where going all over the place aswell.I never saw the track crew put VHT on the track after the rain and during the event. All they did was blow off the track and thats it. They never even prepped it. Sorry for the loss travieso. I was in shock when i seen the car hit the wall the way it did.Glad you are ok.Horriable event. Thanks to OSW for ruining it.

I hope NHRA and NOPI will allow RWD cars to be tube chassis like the FWD cars and then we all will be even or at least 1/2 chassis. RWD cars have very little traction on the tire size and the suspension that we are only allow to run.
