      What ever happened with this car?

      Hey everyone!

      I apologize for the lack of updates. I have not been on the site for a very long time. The car has been completed since 2016. As with all new race cars, we are still working out some bugs and are making various improvements. So far, the car has gone a best of 11.44 @ 116 MPH. I will try and post up some new pictures and updates, but you can also see a ton of info and details about this car and our other team cars by visiting our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/awarenessmotorsports

      Thanks!Name: Stocker Launch.jpeg Views: 142 Size: 125.3 KB
