All you hard nose guys can share what you know on this one.

change bumpers to a good impala or pointy newyorker/imperial bumper, tuck and notch the rear or atleast dimple it, then use the front the whole time.

Iwould say forget the bumper jus take a newyorker bumper cuy down and weld across that front cross member i see lots of guys do that.or do it fast like dadicted said

weld in the cradle put on a good newyorker bumper, dont turn around all nose all night...

Also dont forget extra bolts everwhere in the sub or it'll be on the ground like an anchor.

You can see what mine looks like at www.photobucket.com/albums/a357/esmith25 the front isnt done yet had to wait on the rules to see what we could do.You will want to tuck the rear end of it that will help alot on the rearend if you need to use it at all.

Just went to a derby this week, that had about 8 Hammer Head Imps in it. They couldn't change the bumpers. But do you think a pointy shock bumper would work good on one? I do think I'd change the stock bumper brackets, to thicker flat bar. The old spring steel ones, just snapped. With flat bar, they'll bend, but still be there. Also, some took the front claipers off, to keep the wheels from hitting them. Is there another car, that has smaller ones, that could be used, if you wanted to keep front brakes? And needless to say, the Imps took the first 5 spots. Some really hard hitting!!!!!
