Re: Most Impressive car in Stock Elim.
 

I remember racing "Yo Kenny" Meile at Englishtown Nat. Event one year with four cars left. My tree comes down, I'm away clean, shift high gear, wave at Winston Vision camera, and look in my rear view mirror to see Kennys light. Kenny leaves clean and all that I can see is the ENTIRE bottom of the car. He put it up so high that it did a wobble on the rear valance. Well, I think that he's done, no one can recover from that and run the number, WRONG! He beats me and wins his first Nat. Event.
Now THAT was impressive and I don't impress easily!

Back in the day when Jason Line ran that C/SA Buick, that car was impressive ...

Re: Most Impressive car in Stock Elim.
 

I would have to say Wade's 283 Chevelle. Powerglide and a 283 going 11.40's. How in the hell did that combo get hp taken off?

Re: Most Impressive car in Stock Elim.
 

Steve Tarance V/S Chevy II. It won Combo 1 at the Union Hill many times. For those that have never been to the "Hill" Combo1 was like Comp, you raced off your index with no breakout.

Combo 1. Those were the days. :cool:

Re: Most Impressive car in Stock Elim.
 

David Barton's Coronet. Banging heads with the late model stuff and getting hp while trying...............

Wade

(ps, thanks for all the votes!!)

Re: Most Impressive car in Stock Elim.
 

Jim Marshall's Corvette and Bruce Noland's Camaro.
What these guys have done with a 8 1/2 : 1 low compression smog motor with a weak cam is incredible.
Fred Vetter was on to this combo 24 years ago but then it was only rated at 265 HP.
Now, with a 287 HP rating, these guys are still making it shine.
However, with the new DP Dodges and soon the new crate motor Mustangs invading these classes, I believe it might have been all for naught.
Not just the AA/S - B/S guys being affected now but it will ripple half way down the class structure as well.

Since I did most of my racing in Div 5 and haven't raced recently I am voting for an oldie, Richard Charbonneau's 427 Fairlane wagon.

Re: Most Impressive car in Stock Elim.
 

Jason's buick is here in Div 6 now. It runs 10.40's in C/SA

And I think Cal has Larry's Chevelle covered in B/SA
