Well, I got beat by a kit car. 1968 Shelby Cobra Clone with a 460. All I can say is WOW. I got a better launch and pulled about a car length ahead of him, but after that, he just flew. I figured he would beat me but man, that car was way too light for the motor. If he put wings on that thing it would fly. I quit trying after about 110 when he was 15-20 car lengths ahead of me. At least it was another ford that beat me and not a ricer. I talked to the guy afterwards. He has never run it at the strip. He just takes it to car shows. When he lifted the hood, the engine looked clean enough to eat off of. He had 2 4-barrel carbs and some HUGE headers running from the engine compartment out along the outside of the car. You know what I'm talking about. He says he's got a wrecked 92 hatchback at home with a bunch of performance parts on it he'll sell to me so I got his number and hopefully he'll have something I can use.
