Yes, Super Comp also this car is set up for Nostalgia Pro Stock, UMTR which is stick shift only racing class "very fun class" and standing mile racing or land speed. I was lucky enough to have good success, set some records that still stand today and made a lot of friends along the way. After working on passenger jets and military jets, working on racecars came naturally. Had plans to replace the composite body to a new NHRA legal Pro Stock body until NHRA ruined the class by removing the hood scoops and forcing them to run injection. So the car will just set until NHRA gets their act straight or if one of my records get broken. It has been setting for 3 yrs now.
