When I transferred from the assembly plant into engineering, the guy I replaced (he was retiring) had worked for Duntov.

He said Duntov would fire that stuff up right in the Chevrolet Engineering building and then go "rump rump"-ing through the hallways and out to the test track at the Tech Center.

He also said you had to keep your eyes (and ears) open or you'd get run over.
