Default Old Station Wagon puts it on 70's Camaro

I was just up town messeing around in an ol' station wagon I got and ran into a guy I knew that had about a 77 camaro. He started asking how I was and if i had anything going to run and I decided to see if the ol' beast had it in it so I said I would run his 355 Camaro with my wagon. He did not like that and was like . Anyways we go run and he is on Hoosiers and I got the stock 205/75/R14 on my wagon. They flag us and he gets me out by about a car so i ust shove it strait to second and stand in it he did not know what to do I passed him and kept going would up like 6 open cars on him. After that he did not know what to do except to the ol wagon. Just goes to show you , you have to watch out for those old wagons By the way it is a Chevy

Nice job.

Maybe it should have but the thing is if you say that everyone gets all worked up like omg that has a big block in it. I could just be a bone stock 454 low compression that might get the ol wagon in the 14's but if you open the hood everyone will stay away. Sorry man thats just why I didn't say anything

Older wagon's can be pretty fast, they normally have v8's and heavy duty rear ends. That's what I heard tho.
