A new Nitro Funny Car (Maybe)? (1 Viewer)

Found this on Twitter last night. This car was displayed at the SEMA show this week. No context at all but it shows Jon Capps as the driver. First I have heard or saw anything about this car. If it is just for promotional reasons, it would make little sense to have a drivers name on the car.

This might be what Ron was so excited about? A 2 car team? Going out on his own or staying with DSR?

Is that the first generation Charger body? If so, that's one old body.

I'm thinking it's either a Funny Car Chaos car or a promotional vehicle.

I thought promotional but why have a drivers name on the car? If there is a big deal in the works this would most likely be their display car. I’m hopeful it’s more.

That is one of Del's cars that Jon rented for the SEMA show. Not sure if there is anything beyond that....

Auto Parts for less & a NAPA car on the same team ? Don't think so.

Does make sense, I didn't think about that. Kinda like Pepsi and Coke on the same team.

Saw the car on an open trailer parked in between motor homes in the pits at Vegas drags. Thought it was cool to see how a low budget team can operate!
