I love that she pulls the wheels off the ground. Those pics were posted on the Moparts forum and were taken at Mopars at the Strip.

I'm almost certain that I saw that very van running a few years ago here in Denver at the Truck Day event. If it is the same one (and I'm 99% sure it is) the anouncer said it's got a 440 in it. The driver was very good, too. If I remember, he went all the way to either the semi-final round or the final round that day. Very Cool. Thanks for posting that, Nate. If I go again this summer and he's there again, I will make sure to get lots of pics!

Doggone! If that was a maxi and we strapped wings on it we could call it a space shuttle, or a real "flying brick"! :rck:
All you space buffs please note that the only "lifting bodies" involved are the passengers... :crazy:

I wonder if there are movie shots of it on www.youtube.com !
I've been enjoying many of the older race semi-finals and national on the youtube lateley.
The best one that gets me the most is a 440 Plymouth Duster taking out a performance ricer burner down the straightaway!
The Roadrunners and Chargers are popular too.
I wonder if this Ram Van has a clip over there?

OK, here's a Dodge Ram Van dragging it out at a professional track. Guess what, it won!

Oval track of full size van races. Now this is really wild! The bus is amazing in this race. To bad the Dodge Sprinter gets banged up badly!

OK, so I'm hooked on these quick movies. :)

the whole point of a van though is to have space not be cooped up in some tiny roll cage though it is strange to se a big van a dodge at that here in Minnesota you barely see any old dodge vans mostly chevys and gmcs or fords> I always said vans are underrated and those posts prove why YOU CAN RACE A VAN, the inside just wont be van like cool though id like to try that only keep the inside nice and van like its still nuts
