    I've had quite a few race cars and have done a TON of research over the years about chassis and the way they work! This car is built off of No plans it is custom designed from the ground up!! But the NHRA and SFI tell you that certain bars have to be in certain places and tube sizes, wall thickness and type of material that needs to be used to be 7.50 legal!! And I do want this car to be the fastest 10 inch tire, stock frame MAVERICK on the planet! That's the goal!!! And if it aint, I'll put a bigger motor in it!!!Plus the guy building it is one of the top chassis builder's their is!!! (Tom Anderson) He's built cars twice as fast as mine!!Thanks for looking, I'll give you a ride when it's done!!!

    We ran a Liberty in the Pro Stock car I worked on. Interesting design, help swapped gear ratios in it once.
