I feel like the heads up runs don't mean much unless they are in a later round.

in 1996-1997 I had a '69 Nova in G and H/SA. Didn't really race it all that much.....

It was a turd......with a wore out engine when I bought it....

I got down to 7 cars at one race with that turd motor and was driving very well. Felt like I could win....BUT...

Was dieing as each round I saw other cars in the same class advance and they were all faster than me....7 cars left 4 were in...H/SA me included...

Bottom line was I got hammered and was done.......at 7cars....

Picked it up a few tenths the following year but was still well behind and than the LT-1's showed up!!.....Sold it...
