Pikes peak hill climb.
When did this run? Around '71 I "got in a trade" a 70 Cuda which had been raced at Pike's. I know nothing of it's history, or who ran it. I stuck a 440 in it and had a little fun out at Carlsbad. Had 5.13's (5.38?) I think, that damn 440 was up over 7K through the lights at 11.80. This was months before I got discharged, had no time to thrash it out. The clutch would not release, I could shift just as fast WITHOUT the clutch, and so I launched in 2nd gear
How about a 71 Cuda at Pikes Peak?...
