Three or four time NHRA Nats winner and class record holder... Anyway, as I recall, gassers didn't run front bumpers; they weren't required by the rules and bumpers add weight, so - no bumper, no weight... Regardless of bumper or not, I'm gonna enjoy this thread.
Yeah, same thing around here....but I gotta be able to take it out on the street to play with the guys, so even a 'glass bumper will meet the criteria for the law here in South Dakota.... It'll be light, for sure!! The original one weighs a ton!!!!
