Hi There, I have decided to get my daughter into Drag Racing. Most of the guys racing know Leilani (my Daughter) loves coming to the track and can't wait one day to have her own car. She loves driving (at 14y.o) and has become ok at shifting gears (and burnouts) in the paddock basher on a mates farm. I had the chance of buying "Dusty" from Steve Parfitt, this is the old Mick Motors car from the U.S. The plans are to Restore this car to an Andra spec Super Street in the next two years. Starting with the body and pan followed by Cage work. Will update as it happens.
Regards
Jason

While you get the car sorted, she can do club Motorkhanas. Great driver training and car control. Kids from 12yo can compete as juniors.
