Well last time I had to make excuses for a lack of Horse power... I rebuilt
the Camaro over the winter and installed an air ride suspension package...
which worked flawlessly... and rebuilt the motor with all the right
stuff... sorta.... it still wasn't a killer motor.. as I am still learning
the Racing part..
Bottom line we found a Record that we could run against that was 151 mph...
and we made ten runs over the day... only two of which were below
150mph.... one a lic. pass for my racing partner.... The second I pulled
the Parachute when the car started bottoming out at 160 due to the down
force and not enough air in the bags...
All that being fixed.. I ran a best time of 166.359 mph... and now the car
is a record holder ..... awesome experience.. I can see why Donald Healey
loved this....
