John has been working on this project for a very long time. He has partnered with the owner of the full size speed demon on this one! Here are a few pics of just one of these cars. A few were made and one was displayed at SEMA. The car is still in developmental stage, but its electric powered and John believes that he should get close to 200mph out of this beast.
ENJOY!!

Here's a link to Poteet & Main's website with an interesting video at the very bottom of the home page.

John, that's a great looking model and it's just begging for a twin turbo Conley to match the full scale setup!

John made the bodies himself. He built 5 of these cars I believe. He worked with the owner of the full size one.
