I'm glad I stumbled upon this!! Weather permitting, my wife and I are a go. I'm not bringing my car down but plan on entering my truck for a good spot to park and it gets the 2 of us into the venue. I will mark down FBBO on my entrance form when I get there.
I'm so on board with the OP on this one!! My last car was a '73 Dart, w2 headed, 416 CI 4 speed car with 4:30 geared rear end... Fun car and pretty reliable but it wasn't what I wanted it to be. Sold all our cars in anticipation of moving south... (last car was sold in 2018)... Never moved...
We bought some throw rugs with a rubber backing at a local “cheap” store…. Whatever we needed to do, we did. Keep those rugs for later on in their life when their paws don’t have the traction to help get them up off the floor.
Drag racing has plenty of other classes to satisfy the purists... Nascar used to be "run what you brung and hope you brung enough." Now, rules upon rules
Mine is a little obvious but I no longer have that car... I always loved the idea of the "sleeper" concept. This shitbox was fun to drive but a ***** to work on. The reactions from people when they get "spanked" by this thing was priceless!! The link is my last pass ever before I sold it...
For me, it's an unknown. The car I just acquired; the owner told me that the camshaft was changed. By the roughness of the idle, I deemed it true, but I don't know the specs of said camshaft nor does the previous owner. This is what "I was told".
