Re: Worst Performance Car You Ever Owned!
Bret,
I'm pretty sure a 66' Valiant "Super Croc' with a 273/180HP 2-barrel held the NHRA N/SA National Record in 1968. Out of the southeastern area (Little Rock, Arkansas) Bill Ayres N/SA record 1968; 14.67 Not bad for a little 2-barrel. PC Last edited by Paul Ceasrine; 08-02-2010 at 07:02 PM. |
