Besides bringing the Reaper Camaro back with a new engine and power-adder combination, Goad has added to his team some big names to assist him with dominating on the streets or track.
“We put the car together and called the Bruder brothers to help get the car lined out with the new setup. I wanted to have the combined minds of Travis Quillin and the Bruder brothers to help with the cars. The goal as a team is to make both cars as fast as possible. I also brought in Johnny “Drama” Maguda to do maintenance on both cars between rounds. I’ve got the people, knowledge, and equipment to go faster now. With the new setup in Reaper the car has gone 1.02 and 1.03 60-foots and run in the 2.70s to the 330 in no-prep trim,” Goad says.
The plan for the reincarnated Reaper is to put it back out on the street to race while using Deez Nuts at the No Prep Kings events. Because both cars are very close in setup and use the same parts Goad will be bringing them both to all the No Prep Kings events to prevent any downtime due to parts breakage. Goad is also considering pressing the Reaper into service at some events with small tires.
“Both cars still use the same parts from
Roadrunner Performance,
Neal Chance Racing Converters,
ATI Performance Products,
Davis Technologies,
TMS Titanium,
Optic Armor,
ProCharger,
Chassis Engineering and
Santhuff. That makes it easier for us to set each car up and swap parts if needed at the track. This will really keep our program moving along the rest of the year,” Goad explains.
