Poe's was an alcohol motor and Larry's an exhibition car. Not going to set the world on fire with either one. Until a serious NA guy puts as much attention to an NA build as you did or maybe a Glenn Sidig it's not gonna happen. The bottom line is that it takes time and money.
It will happen...and when it does and performs well, the haters will claim weight, tires, full tube car blah blah blah... So someone will have to build a car equal to langers, Snyder's or dwights...it will be a true apples to apples comparison...
