there is no comparison between a bracket car and a stock eliminator car or any NHRA class eliminator car. point I was trying to make is the average Joe has no idea the potential these cars have wether its a stocker right to comp eliminator. also back in the early eighties they were much closer to a "stock" production car than they are today.NG.

Great story! I used to do the same thing with my old L/SA Buick Skylark back in the late '70's on the street. It was not nearly as fast as that guys Vette, but was a hoot.... it would hook in a car wash!
