Super blue
I never made it up there,but I remember a white trans am called little darling.I put a pounding on him with a 67 400 Firebird that I had a built 427/425 vette engine in at the time.A couple of years ago during the car show up in Lake George,NY my son and I got to see a few grudge runs being lit off on the highway and there was a Nova running up there that was pulling the frt tires off the ground for a good twenty feet or so(all aluminum small block)
All of the street racing and I have never run any of my rides down a real track,hoping to haul the 69 up to Lebanon Valley drag strip in a few weeks and see if I can break it :burnout:

Certainly sheds light on how fit we are as a people now. Look at most of the guys are rail thin and tan from not wearing shirts. If I was to walk around without a shirt I would give small children nightmares. Instead of 80% skinny versus 20% overweight it seems we have flip flopped. Now most of the people are not just a little overweight and about 20% are thin.

Us fat guys can't be used to start races because it would make it too hard for the cars to go around us!  :roflsmiley:  :smilielol:
