2 wheel speed measured at Bonneville in 1986. Honda
V-65 Sabre that I bored a tad. Factory 82 hp, mine
dynoed at 112. Hit 152 flying mile, too scary.
4 wheel in 1987 Corvette at bonneville in 1990. 383
mild build and did 189. Fast enough for me.
Don (much saner now, yeah right) Miller
68 Turbo V-6 (12.21 only time in the quarter)
