Smart Ass answer
I highly recommend buying my Beretta body that I have for sale here on RJ as a transition vehicle. Just install your engine from your new dragster for one season to get the hang of the new excitement. I raced it this year at 7.51 ET quarter mile times and can not eat a sandwich while mowing down the track yet. This may give you the confidence to run the real long wheel base easy going dragster and then your wife can use the Beretta the next season?
