That class is amazing!!! Think of this... When ProStock first started in 1970 they were running low 10's and Grumpy Bill Jenkins made the first 9.99 pass... now we are running that fast 302" at 3100lbs!!

That car is badass!!!! Bangs second while wheels are still in the air!!!!

Coyote Stock is up there with being one of the greatest classes of racing, ever. For me, its a toss up between NMRA C/S and NHRA P/S

I miss the Joker car. Sobrino's a funny guy. He has some old videos of the 🃏 in outlaw trim going 9's. It's mind blowing how light these cars really are. 400lbs of ballist. This is modern day technology folks. A sealed engine going low 10s. Fun fun stuff

[@tommyfrombama4834]

In a world where the manual trans is nearly extinct, this class is almost exclusively manual. If I recall correctly, the auto trans was not competitive in this class. Who says autos are better than manuals? Just kidding, kind of.

[@177SCmaro]

Auto's have their place in bracket racing but stirring your own cogs is how God intended it.

They do and it’s called Chevy Performance Stock and Coyote stock races against them in the NMRA vs NMCA cross over races.

@@GT500VENOM at one time the rules only allowed autos. Idk if it allows stick cars yet.....hence why i said stick cars fo lyfe

[@GT500VENOM]

Yes they allow stick cars in the class. They have for years. It just that a lot of the guys don’t want the hassle of running a stick I guess. The class would be quicker with a sorted out stick combo and I tell them every time we run them in the cross over race.

Does the dude with the tbird have a shop up in Hamilton.. and do they provide tuning amd after market parts is they have a shop

[@ricktotz4078]

Powered by Ford👍🏼

[@RaceGasSmellsGood]

How does its weight compare to a Fox in the same class? Is there a minimum weight? Other than being different, do you think there are any advantages to this T-Bird over a Fox? Better aero?

[@revanevan]

Minimum class weight is 3,100 lbs.

[@177SCmaro]

What do you get when you cross a fox and a coyote? A 10 second race car.

[@ls1_cammeroh]

Love it! sick of seeing fox bodies at the strip. I would love to make a drag car out of the 90s t bird.

[@bisaiah9797]

Six to Seven second mark of this video >> "Air Shifting".

[@carm4450]

Is the red button on the top of the shifter line lock? If I am wrong...what is it? Are you guys run a WOT box for no lift shifts or does the trans just let you do that?

[@cbgb6578]

The red button is both the Linelock and 2-step and we do not run a wot box they would slow it down.. just pull the gear on the shift the G101A it.' goes right in the next gear effortlessly.

[@19jody72]

Sealed crate engine!

[@bigbertha441]

Stock oil pump gears!! An they ganging off the Rev limter like crazy!!!

No they all have the billet oil pump gears installed in them and resealed before shipped out to the racers.

[@dry509]

Did you have to modify the engine bay and location of motor mounts to install a Coyote engine?

[@GT500VENOM]

dry509 no it’s a UPR Kmember for a coyote swap into a foxbody. Fit in the engine bay without modification.

[@hoost3056]

Im surprised a 10 speed and convertor hasn't snatched this class yet.

[@petrolhead8851]

Autos suck! Manuals for the win!!!

[@Silkmaster4200]

I rather put in Windsor 5.0 V8 with a new EFI 4 throttle bodies. Should work as good. Better torque numbers. Especially OHV. Plus 4” bore. Just my opinion. Not a fan putting new engines in old cars. Having new parts in old engines. That’s fine for me lol

I hope I dont make any body mad but I have a 2015 Mustang Gt which is completely stock except for K&N filter in stock box and after market plugs which I am not going to tell you which brand but, I find this real hard to believe, unless he worked some great magic on the suspension

[@tommyyancy3902]

Chassis, suspension, clutch, and weight. You are comparing apples to watermelons. These cars are running ballast in the rear to make the minimum weight of 3100lbs. Oh, and your secret spark plugs, that’s hilarious. Lot’s to learn if you are willing to listen and Evan and these guys have been there and done it for years.

[@emergencylowmaneuvering7350]
