An update on the beach boys song "shutdown"
It has always pissed me off when I hear that song. Our 62 330 post Dart ran consistantly 12.30- 12.40. It was not a street car ( Maverick's 62 Max wedge ). Dave's Chevron 62 3 speed max wedge ran 12.30-12.50 and 118 MPH at Pomona. Because Chevys were so much more popular, I had thought that Brian Wilson felt that it sounded better for the vette to win. Dave blew up the motor and the rebuilt one never ran those speeds. Thanks for letting me know the real story.
