Mike, those photos you provided in the link were great.  I loved making fun of those Civic hatchbacks, especially the one without a front bumper. (he probably will be getting a bright red or flat black cheesy bumper installed soon.)

One question...did you stay in 2nd gear all the way down or did you at least get to use 3rd--LOL?? I had some 2.94's in my Coronet and could go thru at about 5500 in 2nd.

That was a good et...just wait til ya drop the 3.91's in. It'll pick up a good bit. Sounds like you had a good time!


Nope! lol i trapped at about 5300rpm in 2nd haha.

its even better to hear them talk to their friends, shine up their jacked up paint. rev their terrible sounding open exhaust half motor....and run a mid 16sec quarter lol

Great pics!  You did a great job at the track!
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.
