Think of a Hemi Challenger running down a Vega or a Pinto. More smoke at the finish than the burnout box. Plus we had a slight oil leak on the header that looked like we tossed a rod out the side at around the 1000'. Won many a round that way. Competition would lift figuring we broke and we would go roaring by.
And remember you could only dial under once. You had to run that dial the whole race
