I was feeling kind of ignorant for a while but now I'm feeling better about my lack of knowledge. I always thought of Kansas as the home of Conestoga wagon racing and corn eating contests. I want to thank the first two posters for widening my horizon. I am sure they were both witness to the elusive 146 MPH Cobra Jet passes and have surely seen Bigfoot. I see there are four Cobra Jets at Great, Great, Great Bend, not to confused with Grand Bend. I see they have A/SA and AA/SA covered from 9.70 to 10.30. Funny everyone is going to the automatic trans.Wright and Ronzello seem to be the only stick Cobra Jet out there playing. I still think it will be fun to watch how the Challengers and Cobra Jets develop. I guess they both want to kick the sh**t out of them GM cars from the sixties and seventies. I like the headline in the Wall Street Journal today " Pontiac IS Going To The Junkyard". I guess this makes them permanent collector cars. Ford had the Edsel but GM wins the crown with Saturn, Hummer, Oldsmobile and now Pontiac.
