Disappointed with my engine

In 73 I had a 69 350/350 hp 4 speed Vette l raced I don’t remember what on the interstate and hit 150 mph. I passed a car on the emergency lane at 120. Yeah I should be dead.
We used to do that stuff in the 80s and 90s! I would crawl out on hoods and "surf" by grabbing the roof.. but not at those speeds! But E lane passing? Yeah. I could only imagine now, do it and run out of e lane, into narrow overpass!
