Right? I feel like I walked into a coffee/barber shop. I thought I might read something interesting but nope. |

Re: Quickest traditional Muscle Cars in Stock
I think that it's very interesting how different "Car Guys" view what a "traditional" Muscle Car is.
Ya know, I used to race a 1985 Pontiac Sunbird Turbo. It was fun and pretty fast. In the 1985 model year, the Turbo Sunbird WAS the fastest Pontiac body style period. I don't know if it's a Muscle Car though.

Re: Quickest traditional Muscle Cars in Stock
Agree with many of the names mentioned already. In an effort to get this thread back on track, I will throw out a few cars, some of which are sandbaggers that rarely show what their capable of running:
Jim Boudreau, '69 Camaro 396 Don Little, 1970 426 Hemi Dwayne Scheitlin, 1970 Challenger 440 Six Pack Ryan McClanahan, 1969 Camaro 427 John Shaul, 1964 Plymouth Fury 426 Max Wedge Hopefully, with the new AHFS rules, people will be more inclined put up some big numbers at least once a year at fast tracks.

Re: Quickest traditional Muscle Cars in Stock
Barber shop not necessary for many of us that lived thru the “muscle car” era
Sorry if my post went a bit off the rails, I was just reminiscing and got off the main question The big cars are rarely raced in the modern era of Stock but they certainly were at one time.

Re: Quickest traditional Muscle Cars in Stock
Back in early 70s, we were at the Saturday night street races with a 70 350 LT1 Camaro and a 67 396 375 chevelle, a guy showed up with a white 1963 Ford Galaxy with a 406 3 duece Thunderbolt and schooled us on what a muscle car was.

They were considered full size at the time. IMHO a traditional muscle car would be up to the year of 1965

Re: Quickest traditional Muscle Cars in Stock
My favorite "Muscle Car" is the 1969.5 (A12) Plymouth Road Runner 440 6bbl. Steve Wann has "tuned up" a few with great results in Stock Eliminator.

Okay, so now we know for sure specifically what you were looking for, this thread would have been over in three or four posts . At least I helped in getting it to 3-4 pages ;-)
