I miss this car, Stevie needs to build another notch like this. Car will always be a legend in the world of drag racing IMO..prolly to this day the best grudge car to ever do it..

[@77yogurt]

Agreed. The man and the car are legendary.

[@moonshinemenace6611]

Jesus that looks like a mob at the starting line how fun to be a driver of a car. I thought Spectators were supposed to be in the stands

[@scottgoodwin1073]

The stands are empty but atleast the start line is full just incase an engine explodes they can all catch a piece

That car was mean as all hell in all forms, but my favorite was the blown version. Watching him gapping all the pro mods and shit he did was epic. That car was a monster. All his cars seem to be that way lol. Stevie is a legend for sure

Nice lookin hotrod with the skulls, all nice and quick, but that red vette was one beautiful hotrod

[@af1132racing]

The Shadow was my favorite Radial vs. The World car. That's where I first discovered it a few years ago. It definitely went out with a bang.

[@af1132racing]

It's all about the shadow blower!

The first pass it shows with it swapped to a blower car, that’s my home track in Louisiana!! 🤙🏼😎

[@camshaflober3691]

Marcus Birt is from middle GA as well. He is another long time grudge racer. I miss the ORSCA days that is when i first seen the orange car and become a fan

[@quickdeuce]

Question is,, I'm betting if they tried they could get at least another 4 or 500 non essential people in the staging lanes,, what ya think? Geeezus people,, imagine yourself piloting these beasts and having to navigate thru this crowd of peeps who really have no business in the staging lanes to execute your burn in. There's bleachers for spectators folks.

[@drelliott2833]

You are 100% correct!

[@bjej9613]

[@corymitchell2720]

He was so bad he was crushing pro mods on a 315 radial.=small tire

[@snipeatyou]

Cory Mitchell 315 radial is not a small tire. And radial over 275 is a small tire and that’s still a little bit bigger than what a small tire slick would be

[@RobsGarage]

The wrapped fox on 315s was my favorite. Was a sad day was it was destroyed.

What??

[@jbin2424]

LOL GOOD CATCH!! Thanks. Got it fixed. Just a typo lol.

[@johnconnor_513]

The OG Shadow nitrous on big tires was out when the orange car was dominating. It was purely for grudge action. I made a few dollars off it lol BMF!!

[@artmatthes3559]

I've been at drag races lately like 3 or 4 years ago and I've seen the mob talking about all those people at the starting line with pints of whiskey in their back pocket. It's unbelievable. Back in the day the officials wouldn't even let any spectator in the staging lanes let alone the starting Lane. I hate that shit. I don't know why nhra doesn't clamp down on that.. one of these days somebody's going to get killed.

[@tashawegmueller1866]

These are not NHRA races..probably a grudge match of sort

Nice to see the car evolve from fox body to pro mod...actually I think only 2 you , and CHEIF, do or did you , unofficially ever street race at the first stage with nitrous?? Big tire ,fast times, pretty consisting, big money in no prep now...no promod allowed, only car's with vin Numbers... As you know.. Good to see pal...

[@54raceman]

Well when you try to turn a fox body into a jet plane you usually gotta start over so might aswell upgrade

[@ivanalejandroontiverosnune8959]

One mustang who want be camaro

[@joshwhittle3147]

This is not too hard for me...here is my pick and the reasoning behind it. First off, between nitrous, turbo, or blower/supercharger power adders, to me, there is no question-It just doesn't get any better than a big roots or screw blower or possibly a 139 or 143mm Procharger. Soooo....there goes #1 and #2 Shadows. Now, it comes down to the rattle-trap Fox body or a 5th Gen Camaro, and again, there is no comparison. Mustangs have always been a hunk of shit compared to most all other cars in the category. And I get so sick of seeing 28 of a 32 car field being Mustangs. Don't get me wrong...they make a great race car, and I have a 1993 trunk car project in my garage right this second I have been working on for years. But anyhow, yeah, the Camaro wins that round. Now, in the finals are two Camaro, blown versions of the Shadow, one with a steam roller tire and the other 315 drag radials. I am guessing the car is a little more controllable with the big tires, but I like watching cars get squirly, and the smaller tires also look 10 times better. So, the winner is #8 by at least a half of a car link.

[@65Wonders]

Josh Whittle man fuck those slomaros. That’s why everybody wants to use the mustang. Lunky ass f bodies don’t work

[@thomasmartin5319]
