If anyone deserves some accolades -- it's 60man. Way to go.

That car in those speed channel promos races at great lakes dragaway in Union Grove Wisconsin,that's where they shot the first pilot episodes for the new shows from the pinks gang.
I posted a thread here a while back about that "pilot" being shot at GLD,that was a couple of days before they were shooting that show there. I know quite a few people that were there for the "new" show taping,talked to them about that when I visited there a week or so after the taping,was in town for the hot rod powertour stop and was visiting folks. That car is well known in that area. The car is indeed a '60 chevy troy. There are a few pics of it on the GLD website,also saved one on my drive for giggles. My friends up there that know the car well say he intentionally launches it out of shape like that because the crowd goes ape$#!t every time he launches. Here's a pic of the car in the promo,if you look quick you'll also see that the track is great lakes as the tower and billboards are easy to make out in the background.

He to suffers from the X-frame syndrom...
A friend of mines son runs a 62 409(?) Cheby and it launches all out of shape to. But like said.....the crowd loves it...Super Chevy pays him to show as it is.... He now runs it on a limited basis since he bought a ProMod 'Vette. This pic is a "mild" launch. He has twisted it so bad he popped the rear glass out !!
