History
Jerry Eisert was a builder of Indy and Formula A/5000 cars based in Cost Mesa California.
This car was owned by Kenny Hamilton of Boise Idaho, father of Davey Hamilton of Super Modified and
IRL fame. The car was intended to be run as a Super Modified but was too fragile for that rough and
tumble class.
Little else is known of the history of this car. Setup sheets are signed by Bill Moir of Interscope Racing.
The car is known to have run both Ford and Chevy engines, the cutouts in the top of the engine bay tub
sections were made to accomodate a Ford.
