Jerry Macneish, 302 stocker

Be curious to see what Jerry would do in the FAST class. I think he'd embarrass those SCJs and L88 Corvettes that are taking top honors these days just getting into the 9's.

Very impressive! that Z is hauling the mail!!

I was talking to a NHRA class racer with a 69 L71 (435 tri power) Corvette who was doing a tnt at the same drag strip that Fast class racer Terry Pennington was doing a tnt with his Fast 69 L88 Vette. The Nhra class racer said that the worst thing to have happen was to have a "truely stock" car running the same class show up at a Nhra race so the inspectors can compare the two cars and see how much you are cheating. The Nhra L71 Corvette didn't look anywhere near stock under the hood (even discounting the headers), while most of the Fast cars look like they came off of the showroom floor. I'm sure the Nhra racers could go extremly fast in a Fast class car, but I doubt if they would even pass the visual test.

By the way, FAST cars don't get to do suspension mods like NHRA <span style="font-style: italic">stockers</span> do.
