The Jeep is also listed as a “hill shooter” which we think means that it’ll run at awesome sand hill climb events. Packing a 468ci big block Chevy engine, a PowerGlide, and a Dana 44 rear axle the thing runs the 300ft sand drag course in a little over 4-seconds and according to the ad on RacingJunk it goes straight. You could be in this thing and racing it next weekend for $10,000. There are parts of the country that don’t have much (or any) scene for the sport but those areas that do seem to have an environment where budget fun is the name of the game. One of the things I have found is that the “barriers to entry” are pretty low. I am pretty excited and I have been trying to read up on as much stuff as I possibly can about the sport and how stuff in it works. As I write this I am on my way to the first official life experience I will have with drag racing on dirt.
