Don Garlits

I saw the runs at the Cordova World Series and the rev limiter is an issue for sure. Larry Griffiths car did a similar thing on the dyno last week. Says he won't race his till all the bugs are out. Quite a few other things kept the times in the mid 10's. Both the cars are sweet though and when they get tuned in it could be something to see. Larry got 30 hp at the dyno and is going back for another shot soon. Don's runs got slower the more they played on the laptop. Not much about the performance on the post on http://www.moparspeed.com/
I got a photo on the web page though. Fun for me!

I wonder who is trying to help him tune it? Of course, going backwards tells you what it doesn't like, which is about as important as knowing what it does like.

Big Daddy is parked right across from the concession stands in the bowl. Nobody else parked around him this afternoon.
