Default Re: Original hemi dart information

Hemi-Head,

When the 68' Hemi Cuda's and Darts came out,
the NHRA set a minimum ET / Index
SS/B 10.85
SS/BA 10.90

The first-early records were set by
Don Grotheer in SS/B; 10.91 @ 131.19

Bill Stiles set the SS/BA ET record with an 11.06 at
Island DragStrip, New Jersey in August 68'.

I'm pretty sure J. Corles (sic) had the first SS/BA ET record with
'The Hustler' Dart (11.09)

Both records were 'soft'.
