[ QUOTE ]
Bruce, Those '74 SD-455's were rated in the upper 300's as far as HP, weren't they? It just looked like the Yenko driver pulled off the power and let the Trans-Am pull away. Are those races staged? Anyone know who's Yenko was featured in this segment? Steve [/ QUOTE ] Colin or Charley might have an insight on whether those races are staged or not. But from what I remember, the SD's HP rating was VERY conservatively estimated (insurance purposes). If I'm not mistaken...weren't the ratings near to or the same as a hemi (425 +/-)? On unleaded gasoline no less and with less compression? ![]()
