Both cars are homages to the Aero wars of 1970.

Cool story.

THIS is a pucker moment, though!!

when Brown ran the same course in the Torino. “I slid for three-quarters of a mile.” Part-way through the slide, Brown went backward through the timing lights at the three-mile mark at 201 mph.
 
Very cool cars, and Aaron is a stand-up guy that runs a great shop. I’ve had the pleasure of speaking with him a few times, and my friend has assisted him with standing mile events. The truck he built before these cars is just as awesome and probably even more impressive.
