KURT BUSH PREPPING FOR NHRA DEBUT

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Competition Plus has an article on their site interviewing Kurt Bush, with some real good photos of his 1970 Dodge Challenger. The Challenger will be running a turbo charged Generation III Hemi engine on gasoline. This combination will be set up for the Super Gas Class. By no means is this my favorite car, but I think its real cool that he is getting involved in other forms of racing outside of circle track. Is Miller doing this since they got rid of Prudhomme’s team?
