Depends on how you define SLOW CAR... All the weather, wind etc is accentuated with a low powered big car. ANY car I ever had with a small carb was a problem. I had a 283 chevy II before gauges and it was rediculous. Cloud cover made it run faster to say nothing of a temp drop in the evening.. I had a 350 chevy wagon with a glide that was very consistent. A big inch motor with plenty of carb and compression seems to be the least variable. This is even track to track.
Should have been running when you dialed your car by 4:00 on day of eliminations and then raced at midnight. NO CHANGING THE DIAL......a lot of brake lights and sliding in the lights......
