April FEATURED Mopar for our club. Our member Ian's story about his 1972 Dodge Challenger

I started as the crew chief for Dennis Evans on the challenger when I was 14 years old. I stayed racing with Dennis up until just before he passed away. When Dennis passed away the car was given to his grand son Jake and son Neil. Neil and Jake continued to race the car for quite a few years. Shortly after parking the car Dennis’s son Neil passed away. The car sat for about 7 years in Neils backyard. When I picked up the car the only thing that was in it was the MSD ignition everything else was gone.

After taking some time to go through the car I called fellow club member Doug Schneier to see about building a motor for the car Fast forward to today. We have had the car out quite a few races. The motor that Doug built for me make great power and is extremely consistent. My plan is to race the car another year or so and then turn the driving duties over to my daughter who will be aging out of the JR Dragster program.
