Re: Trailer Killers!
How about a 1978 Caddy Fleetwood, 425/ 180 / 243 for U/SA ,at a svelt 5030 lbs?
I'll bet you could drive one of those babies to the track and run high 14's ,under the index with a little work

Re: Trailer Killers!
Leave it to Billy to find them. In his hands they'd likely be a handful to beat in class too.

Re: Trailer Killers!
You might find that most of these combos ended up at demo derbies.

Re: Trailer Killers!
In the late 70's I built a 1969 chevy brookwood stationwagon, it was a 396 /265 h.p. 2bbl engine,and a t-400 trans, weight with driver for Q/SA 4705 lb's# it wasn't very quick back then @ 14.17 e.t and 83 mph, but it would pull the front wheels 2 feet off the line ..

Re: Trailer Killers!
Luckily the 265 caprice 200/230 is only just hitting 3850 currently. Could be 4310 in R

Re: Trailer Killers!
Back during my Dover Drag Strip days in the early 70’s I remember Joe’s brother, Lance DeMarzo running a ‘69 Impala 2 dr. Custom in R/SA with a 327/235 2V motor. With today’s rules would this be a viable combo ? Could fall into T too.
