This is not Dak related, but a spank nonetheless. Stats here:

Me: (Driving this instead of broken Dak)

'79 Plymouth Volare RoadRunner (T-Tops)
Rebuilt 318 - 2bbl
.445/.462 cam
2 inch SINGLE exhaust w/Andretti muffler - (came with car) - Sounds GOOD!!
Check this - 2.45 Sure-Grip (not a misprint)
215/70 R14's
A-904 auto

Him: (met him at the track once - never paid attention to his times)

'78 Camaro
Rebuilt 350 dual quad
.460/.472 cam
dual sidepipes
4.10 posi
275/60 R15's
TH-400 auto

He pulled up next to me and revved up his motor. He pulled me at the light, I caught up
at 20 mph and pulled him to 60 when I let off (we were in a 35 zone). I wasn't even out
of first yet!! I shift out of first at 68 mph - 5200 rpm or so. Oh yeah, 135 mph
(measured against Mustang w/160 mph speedo) is at 4000 rpm, I think. Just think if it
had overdrive!! - and/or more power.

Chevy's suck!!
