Current TF and FC chassis builders (1 Viewer)

[J. S.]

I haven't seen much recently about this topic, and with some recent discussion about the Kalitta TF car chassis perhaps disagreeing with Alan Johnson's tune-up, I got wondering who is currently building chassis for the fuel cars. Presuming that Kalitta still builds them in house. How about the Force TF and FC cars? Is Richie Crampton still building TF chassis? How about Schumacher? Must be an in-house chassis for Tony, but do they still provide pipe for the old team cars - Capps, Tony S team, and Antron Brown? Is anyone using Murf McKinney anymore, or is he old news? Any commercial Vendor out there these days for an FC chassis? Who does Wilkerson, Tasca, and Cruz use? Need help from you insiders to assist with this question.

As per a couple of NHRA videos within the last couple of weeks, AB, RCM, and TSR have started modifying the DSM chassis in house, trying to find an edge. Brown and Capps are renting shop space from DSR/DSM. So, I am not sure how secretive you could be. TSR has his own shop near by, with his sprint car team.

So, why is
Ashley Force listed as a 2022 Force Chassis and
Austin Prock listed as a 2022 American Chassis
Inquiring minds want to know
Different specs?
