The Crow was HEAVY, The CROW had a good suspension but not a PRO MOD type suspension (so Justin could use the power he had available), you get the idea.
So I have to say that for Justin the right thing to do to keep winning is to build a Mustang Weight type race vehicle but with a PONTIAC BODY. The Blue Car in the pictures fit that description. At some point you need to move away from the RAM AIR 4 camshaft, the cast iron RAM AIR 4 heads philosophy and move into the KRE world where the vehicle is lighter than a feather so that you can run a big number with the HP you have. You still need a proper chassis/tire deal but in reality the KRE Guys showed the way on this light as a feather deal.
So build a SAFE Pro Mod type car with the Traditional Pontiac Turbo Engine installed and kick some butt on the guys you could not beat before.
Good Luck Justin.

If this is the car then I am happy: as it is is lighter weight, has a much better AERO, and that he will continue to race a Pontiac engine.
