No lie, on the first time shot a VW bug beat me on a heads up run. I took such a ribbing, I had to do something. Eventually, the car evolved to a model 100 2dr sdn (lighter) and NHRA "legal" stocker (Z/SA), with a "blueprinted" engine, Headers, 8 inch converter, manual VB, 3.91 SG rear, slicks, and was running mid 16's, with a occasional (excellent conditions) 16.2-16.3.
