Description[]
This is a generic take on a supermodified race car, a class of short track race cars popular in the United States and Canada; these are identified by a chromemoly tubeframe with an extreme offset to the driver's side and outside-mounted big block V8 engine. These are notably similar to sprint cars but feature a significantly more radical design.
This casting was notable for its "detachable" wing as it was only held on by two pegs; due to this this casting would often be found with its wing missing if bought second-hand. In 2012, the casting's wing was retooled to be clipped on as well as the roll cage and front being one diecast piece with the rest of the body, ostensibly for cost-cutting.
