Another validation of my decision to park my car (71 429 Mach 1). This COPO along with the 2010 352 Mustang and the ridiculously fast 400 Pontiacs running in the low, low 10's no amount of money or work would ever make my barge competitive again. SCCA anyone?

Maybe you need to get some superceded Kaase heads Bill.
If that is a rolling chassis where did the engine come from? |

Hi Dave. Yeah, I though about changing classes. I would have to weigh a minimum of 3770 lbs for E, which I could do by adding 180 lbs of lead. I wouldn't have to worry about hooking with all that I suppose and there don't seem to be any of the newer cars in E. The fastest E cars are still 2 tenths faster than I have ever gone in D though. I could probably get my car to minimum C weight with some work. If we had an aluminum head and intake that would be a lot easier, but it isn't going to happen, ever. It is interesting that Nitro Joe's latest stats show that the fastest DA cars are faster than the fastest CA cars. D has turned into a really tough place to be and the newer cars like Dan's Camaro isn't making it any easier.

I just hate seeing the early established cars parked. It seems the new cars are instantly competitive & I'm still trying to get my 70"s Ford under. ( I know I picked an oddball combo). Not quite seeing it in "N" yet but being in "D" it would really tick me off.
