Ford 272 C.I. runs low 11's. Why do Mopar guys need 408's?

Because I don’t count cars as bracket cars. That’s what bubble gummers do.

You know what a bracket car is, just like I do.

To explain the difference between a street car and a race car and what’s in between would be a big task. I’ll do a video.
Here’s the rub. I can see an everyday car only driven in bracket racing, as in my co-workers ‘70 Super Bee.

A dedicated gutted, no lights, no horn, etc…..
IS a race car. It can be bracket raced or driven heads up.

I think you make to much of this and are to stiff on it.
But that’s OK. Yep! I lean more to what you’re thinking.
