We build rods and took our Deuce highboy(
www.gearheadcity.com) to R&G in2006. It was running circles around the Cobras in the Novice class that my apprentice drove it in. I think Jay said it was clocked at 108 coming out of the back sweeper. Rory( my apprentice) said he just mashed the pedal and hardly ever needed to brake. Rods handle pretty well when set up correctly, they have a rougher ride than an IRS car, but probably equivalent to a solid axle Cobra. It's for sale too, at $22,000.
