Smoke wands are nice to watch but down force data would be funner.

Indeed. And that data shows the original 69 Daytona to be superior to the 1971 B Bodies, regardless of which cone, which rear glass treatment and which wing set up they tested. 

p.s. All the numbers are on the aerowarriors.com site.
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

I wasn't a Fan of the 71's till I found my Hemi  1 of 55 total built with the Bad Boy!

I love the 71. If I had the time and the money I would love to build one. :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

71 Plymouth is my favorite B-body.  I was bummed when Petty switched to the Dodge.

May I suggest the 1971 Plymouth version with the 'aero' front end and bubbled rear glass?
It starts to "droop" over the front wheels. Has a Can-Am racer look to it. Rear glass goes 1/2 way into the trunk!
