Ok drag racers, explain to me how a car with solid 4" tubes in the frame do this without pulling both wheels at the same time

That is the result of right rear spring loading due to engine torque and sticky rear tires. The frame is not twisting substantially....as it might appear. The right rear spring is simply being compressed...while the left rear spring is unloading... Sometimes it is referred to as rear suspension "torque reaction".

The 427 Side Oiler 23 T a buddy and I built in Fresno in the 70's did exactly the same thing when launched with a set of Jr. Fuel slicks...on the STREET.

Had to steer with only one front wheel on the ground.

Didn't we see one of these at the McNair Park show this year???

Thought it looked cool, a nice mix of the old styling on a new running platform.

Hey wait, isn't that what we are doing with our Cobra's

Copy cats. Send out the lawyers for patent infringment. Go get 'em Dave.
 
One similar to it Scott, the difference I think was the side skirting and body panels.
