from what i read they were only crushing the cars with stolen parts
man o man, back in "the day" this is befor some of you where born
i had a 73 Merc Comet, 250 inline six with 3 strombergh carbs, this thing would HAWL
anyway, i always took
from this guy in my senior class with this 66 mustang, it was a 302 but had a 2 bbl carb, but he thought it was really something
anyway long story short he busted off the ramp onto the interstate one day after welding class was over,
10 miles back to school from the Votech, he came blowing past me just waving and laughing so i nailed it to the floor, the Comet had 130 on thespeedo but when i passed him at mile 4 it was way past 130, it didnt have a tach but it had to be near 7000 rpm
I later learned from his passenger that day that i had a flame coming out the exhaust tip so i know some exhaust valves where overlapping a bit
RACING IS ILLEGAL AND WRONG
