Daytona is on a distinguished road
Just to clear up some info.....

I currently race a 100% stock 1993 Dodge Daytona ES with a Mitsu 3.0 V6 and auto trans. Over 172k original miles on engine (never rebuilt). Race weight with driver = approx. 3240 lbs (depending on gas and snacks on board).

Ken was racing his Alero but will now be racing his Delta w/auto trans and engine is almost 100% stock.

Ken's Delta runs roughly 19 or 20 seconds. My Daytona runs roughly 16.8 seconds when left in 3rd gear and launched at 1100 RPM. Heads-up, I'd win every time. Ken's Alero got into the high 14's so he'd need that car to beat me heads-up.


Ken's racing history
- Raced and ran points for the 1st time in 2004.
- Also ran in 2005 and 2006.

Mitch's racing history
- Raced for the 1st time in Fall of 1986.
- Joined Points Series at Raceway Park in 1987.
- Won the 1990 Track Points Title in Trophy Stock (back then it was the 1/4-mile equivalent of Street ET but for cars with no major performance modifications besides tires and intake).
- "Retired" in 1991 to work for the track for the next 4 years as a Track Official and with NHRA p/t as a National Event official.
- Joined the Points Series again in 1997 in Advanced Trophy (previous class name of Street ET)
- Ran Points 1997-2001, 2003-Present
- Finished 2 points away from a 2nd Points Title in 2003.
- Finished in Top 8 in points standings 7 out of the last 8 complete seasons.
