Re: Connecting Highway
Hey, don't forget.
'Don't Cook Tonite, Call Chicken Delight'
And White Castle with the 'tangy taste of onion' at "19 cents" a burger.
If you ate before you raced, your hands would slip of the Hurst "T" handle.
Art, The NHRA classifications really killed alot of street cars from racing.
Just who didn't have a car with an Edelbrock dual-plane aluminum high-rise, a Holley 780 dual-feed, and an Accel dual-point. Any tire size bigger than F-60's would be over 7", sending you into S/S, or M/P or Gas.
And the 4-speed street guys, didn't have the Lakewood Bell-Housings
(we all called them 'scattershields').
'A Fanabla'
* Kind of like the early suggested brackets, A 12.99 ET for big-block street cars, and 13.99 for small-block street cars. Cars had to be driven to the track, and with license plates. Had to run-off the 12.99 or 13.99 ET. Any intake, carb, hood scoop and any tire that fit within the wheel-well. Headers, and you could pull off the exhaust system, completely. Only safety items, Scattershields, helmets and seat-belt.
That would have worked.
