Re: Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race
Rob:
Neal Robbins is attending with his '68 L89 Nova SS to unseat Phil Brewer's L89 Nova from last year. In test runs, Neal was running 12.50's at 112 mph. Pretty good for a stock engine with stock cam, I imagine he will run even better in Stanton, MI this weekend.
Neal has been the only guy to run his '70 Yenko Nova at this event, including a few heads up runs against Pete Simpson's Canadian COPO Nova. The Yenko ran respectible 13.80's at 103 mph after fighting massive wheelspin all the way through 3rd gear. This Yenko Nova has run a best of 13.45 at 106 mph with cool dry air, and better traction. Hope to see more Yenko and COPO cars this year.
