1999 Allegan, MI Arnie Kwiatkowski Wild Thing CaseIH MX270 Alky SS. There was lot going on in 1999. Rollcages were a new thing and everyone was struggling with adjusted chassis setups, trying to back up to the sled while looking through the monkey bars, and just the aesthetics of the thing. The Kwiatkowski's first alky Wild Thing was sold to Ken Measel after the '98 season after quickly establishing dominance. The team regrouped with a new design that still wasn't full component. There was ag parts in the rearend, but we were getting real close. The first version of Wild Thing would house an OHC 504ci Brent Long mill with 2 HUGE turbos on it in an attempt to make something happen in the Light Super, too. To my knowledge, they never actually tried to run it as an LSS, but it did prove to be a force against the 598s of the day. Within 2 years, a 650 would find it's way in and a more conventional 3 charger setup as well.
