I once lined up against a dedicated drag car, 70 Boss supposedly, 454 chevy engine, roll cage, huge slicks, powerglide, wheelie bars, race fuel, etc. He had just bought the car and was really just sorting it out. I talked to the guy in the pits and he said he intended to return the car to an all Ford bracket racer.

It was Friday night "street night" where you line up against cars at random unless you request a "grudge race" against some other car. I lined up against the "Chevy-Stang". As it turned out, the guy was preoccupied at the starting line as he was just testing out his new car and I jumped him big time out of the hole (we weren't really racing each other). Needlelss to say, at about the 330, he passed me like I was sitting still.

The Chevy engine / Mustang idea just made me remember that little instance that occurred at least several years ago.
