The car, raced by Don Schumacher to an unequaled record in match races across the country - along with other cars he raced in the '70s that weredubbed "Stardust" - is a tribute to one of the biggest icons in the sport,says Grant. It will be driven by Joe Haas, of Findlay, Ill., in the Nostalgia Pro Comp Association (NPCA) and other nostalgia-racing events in2007. NHRA Funny Car racer Dale Pulde is the technical advisor and "remotecrew chief" on the car, according to Grant.

The Tribute Stardust 'Cuda will make its debut in the spring of 2007 with help from DSR Racing, Valvoline, Brut, U.S. Army, DB Industries, and Lakewood Engineering.
