Andy McCoy Race Cars (AMRC) generated a buzz in the drag racing community with the debut last year of its 1970 Plymouth Duster-bodied race car and is currently building one for veteran racer Thomas Myers. Myers will drive the car in the ADRL Pro Nitrous series.

“Thomas is an excellent driver and this is a great opportunity for us to showcase our car so we are working hard to get it to him as soon as possible,” Andy McCoy said. “He has a strong engine and drivetrain combination and I believe when they are joined together with our chassis he will see an immediate increase in performance. That’s why we have agreed to supply this car for him.”

The former Texas Outlaw Pro Modified champion from Granbury, Texas is currently 12th in the ADRL standings and is slated to be piloting the new car in that series this summer.

“I’m excited we’re going to have a car that is ours rather than somebody else’s old car,” Myers said. “Rebecca (wife and crew chief) and I think the joining of forces between Andy McCoy Race Cars and Tom Slick Motorsports is going to be a win-win situation and we are going to make an all-out assault in 2010 with that car.”

The Duster made its debut last year at the hands of ADRL campaigner Dennis Radford and has been growing in popularity ever since. In addition to its availability in the U.S. through AMRC, the Duster is also available in Europe through an exclusive partnership with Henrik Pedersen’s All-In Racecars.

“When I first saw that thing in Rockingham I thought it was one of the slickest pieces I’d ever seen,” Myers said. “We have great power from our Reher-Morrison motor and we expect to be super fast right out of the gate with that new chassis. I know our sponsors are excited as well because I have spoken to several folks at Safety-Kleen as well as David Spainhour at Midco Demolition Tools, Shorty Miller and Performance Mechanical and Monty Smith at NOS. They make it possible for me to race and I can’t thank them enough for their support.”
