Just how quick were the 273 Commando's in the Quarter-Mile.

Its not about how fast or what you can build. Theres allways somebody faster with deeper bank accounts. Its about how much fun you have, and how dependable your car is. Trust me I know, ante no fun trying to get your car home with a busted 8-3/4. When I bought my 74 scamp, it had a tired 318. I kept that motor untill I made the switch to the R/B. I used it to do the chassis testing. I had a frickin blast with it. Best day was 34 1/4 mile full throttle passes. Never let me down, never blew, drove it to work on Monday.Best time -14.68. The R/B runs 3 seconds faster and a lot more evpensive to drive. So I guess If your not hung up on low E/T Have a ball. Id rather be the heir then the hound. Just trip the light a split second before the other driver!!
