Hopefully this thread will grow Sunday

How about this Mike:
I had a 65 Barracuda, /6 Three on the tree, all original and all stock except cragar SS wheels and BFG tires. I was at a Tennessee Valley Mopar Show a few years back and they allowed all show cars a couple of passes on the track.

I got out there for my first pass, did my burn out, got to the line and had a very good light reaction time, took off like a scalded dog, and as I went down the track (solo, thank goodness so I wasn't too embarrassed) and as I was shifting into second, I heard the announcer say," You need to get out your calendars to time this guy." which ticked me off but man I was flying down the track on my first ever timed race on a track. I crossed the line at about 17 seconds ( I will find the slip in my garage) and thought to my self "Dang,that was better than the factory 1/4 mile time for a 65 with a 273!!!" As I returned and got my slip, I read it and saw the times and then noticed it was an 1/8 mile track. Scalded dog: NO!, Scalded snail....yes!

Obviously,I did not go back for my second run.
