I just measured it at 31.5".
The wheelbase of my chassis is about 1/4 " longer than that.

No problem!
Whenever I think about the great funny car shows I saw in the 70's, the Coke Circuit ones always stood out to me. Kelly Chadwick, Fred Goeske, Jess Tyree, Stone Woods & Cooke, and many other colorful cars and drivers in that series. When I made my nostalgia funny car, I KNEW it had to have the Coke badge on it in tribute!

I hear you were flyin' down the track at Missouri City last weekend!

Not to get of thread too much. We ran yesterday and the car ran very well. If i could tune a chainsaw engine a little better it would run much better. Car weights 34lbs with body on.
