Anybody else remember that? Of course, it couldn't run Modified Production; had to be classsified in as a Gas Coupe.

Ran just like a V8, of course... formidable!!!
My Dad ran Comp. Eliminator in the early 60's, and told me once of a guy who did that in a Comp car back then. He said it absolutly killed the record at the time. Used to race in C/SR.
