Edit: Do these have an X frame along with the perimeter frame? That X could be rough on a driveshaft... WOW how do you think they ever thought about that

The one I saw win actually beat an 03 for the win. Neither car bent head to head and there were a few hard shots. The checker flattened it's pointy and the 03 destroyed a fresh 74 chevy bumper. Wish it woulda went on longer but the ford had engine issues.

I think it's likely just based on undeserved hype, they got banned from a few derbies long ago and there is a mystique about them. Likey due to the fact that there aren't that many of them around as well, so it is few and far between when they get proven to be not the car of legend they have often been made to be.
