Me vs gen I camaro w/ cammed 396
Wish I had a video. This mint green Camaro with drag radials, 4.56 gears (found that out later), and a cammed 396 gets me to race him from a roll. We start out like 10 mph and believe it or not it was neck and neck the entire time. He would have had me if he wasn't spinning up a storm at the top of every gear. Talked to him after all that, real nice guy... kinda surprised to find out all I had done was a lid and short throw but hey its all good.

i know the feeling...the other day i ran a good friend of mine's 68 camaro. has a 461 big block, ford 9", mini tubbed, etc. we ran from a roll and a dig. i thought he was gonna kill me but by the top of third on both runs i was pullin on him by a car or so. said his is a low to mid 11 sec. car...i think we were both surprised by the outcome. next day he ordered a new main body for his carb. may be a different outcome next time.
