As well as the late Kip Martin.

Lets not forget Kip Martin ran 10.20s in SS/L and as fast as 1.30 60 foots at altitude tracks such as Pomona. With a truly legal 289, and these engines were far from high dollars pieces. In my opinion he was a master with the clutch.

Not taking anything away from Kip, but on 289 ss car clutch probaly make big et gain over auto car I'd say 10.20's would be 10.40/50's with auto behind it

You have a point, but Kips 10.20s were ran in a 28.85 Baro, along with the 1.30 60 foot, theres a BIG difference between a 28.85 and 30.0 Baro. That needs to be taken into consideration.

Are you saying Pomona is a slow track? Not hardly.

I will say this: I would rather run in a 30.4 baro than a 29.00 baro.
