I loved that Epstein and Camic article. 10.60's at 126 with all that stuff done to a 302!
How much base do you think was in the clutch then?
Did Epstein need to have NFL quality thighs?

Look at what a modern 283 super stock engine does...
at 3300 pounds, 10.60s would be normal at 123 MPH (for a 283 stick car)
The little performance things sure have added up over the years!

I made a boo boo on my previous you tube upload, and had the video banned for using an NHRA, over the air clip. I redid it this morning for your audio pleasure!
