That being said he was not NUMBER 1 on the "KICK ALL COMERS BUTT" with The Crow.
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.

I think all of the fans, new and old of the Chief, loved the Crow. An A body 70 GTO ( I know its a 72 lemans). I think we all would love to see another GTO even if it was a Pro Mod. He has been at that car for so long, it's like killing off the main character of a hit show. It's like the Lone Ranger with out Silver!!!!!! LOL
