Post your best racing related memory!
I've told this story before, so excuse me. I had a 69 cuda that I raced on weekends which was a high 12 second car. I never street raced as I was at the track every weekend. The car had a 3500 converter and a full manual automatic. Anyway, a kid pulls up next to me at a light in a 5 litre Mustang. I thought what the heck. The car had a 4.56 gear and couldn't hook on street tires. The light went green and I hit it and it didn't spin. I shifted and let off before the next light, the Mustang caught up at the light and I just motored away normally. Fast forward to the weekend and I am in the staging lanes when the kid in the Mustang comes up and asks me if I remember racing his car. I said I did, and the funny thing was that I couldn't figure out why the car didn't spin until I realized that I started in second gear. He walked away shaking his head.
