I think the same driver would be faster with a well built PT car like Penny, the Mule, or scotts car, but I do not know if Scott or Steve could out run the old experienced drivers. Think about how much track experience those racers have. I do believe Scott and Steve's cars would both outrun the pro racers in the straits. Huge power difference! I don't know wich I would rather drive.

Must be a different car
 

I know the guy that is building the car for jimmy and it isn’t done

Report: Jimmie's Camaro failed inspection at the DMV. As a penalty, Chad Knaus will not be allowed at the next 4 cruise-nights. Knaus will be watching the cruise-in from home via a live-feed.

I was told that it was done. My friend works for Hendrick motorsports, too. I emailed him, but he hasn't responed. I was told that the motor is in the car and everything was being "buttoned up." Sorry fellas, next time I will have factual proof.

*side note*Nascar should kick him in the nuts!

:rofl: :rofl:

Looks like it's time to pool some resources. Call up Dream Car Garage to televise it, get Charley to hand the Mule over, get the Penske car out there, and have Mark Stielow drive them both. Well, at least it would be fun to watch. :willy:

Hell yea it would be fun to watch!!

Hmmm... we'd shoot and air that in a hearbeat!

This last year I went to Monterey Historics. During the race that featured the 427 Cobras and GT-40s there was a dude in a cobra and another in a 40 that were going at it like the cars were stolen. Millions in unreplaceable race cars be damned. The announcer claimed that the lap times that the two nutjobs were running were 5sec faster than the times posted when those cars ran Laguna back in the day. Thing is......Laguna is close to 1/2 mile LONGER now than it was then. The difference was tire technology.

I think that if you put the mule or something similar against the Penske or Yunick Camaro on the same tires with the same dude driving that the result would be awfully close. Sure the Mule has more power, but I think winner would be the car that is able to maintain higher speeds in the corners.

It might be close but last time I talked to him two weeks ago the car was still waiting for the frame to get finished being built. The car is not being built at Hendricks, but I am sure they are still involved.

What team or shop or team does you friend work in at Hendricks is a big place with a lot of people on the pay role so its hard to be involved with ever project. In fact I go to school with a guy who is on jimmy’s pit crew he is tire catcher or something similar all I know is he doesn’t go over the wall.
