And since we want to rehash some of this stuff, where was the concern for my old Six Pack car when the 396's and the Fords ran 5 tenths ahead of me. Where was the sympathy? Some of yall are a little one sided. I got a better combination now and I'm a bad guy now. Didn't realize I had changed with the new car. Just goes to show ya.
