Default Re: 70 LT-1 how fast

Here's the link, Chuck. This 'Vette flies, I watched it run during the June race last year, amazing - on belted tires. You can read the 'rules' section of the PSMCDR site, and see the differences vs NHRA. These PSMCDR's are true 'stock', especially when they are 'Certified'.

I may be slow, but, everybody starts somewhere I'd be happy to race a red/red '70 chevelle

-------January/February 1970 I bought a new LT1 Corvette roadster. 4:11s, close ratio. With about 2000 miles, yanked the smog and put a set of OK sides on it. Then borrowed a pair of slicks. Cant remember how tall they were but couldnt have been over 8 inchs wide. Went to Palm Beach Dragway (pre Moroso) and ran a 12.91 thru the traps in 3rd gear at about 7200/7300. Never so much as touched either the distributor or the carburetor! Man that Vette would run!............Bill S

Speaking of 3rd gear, on the third round of the Deuce Shootout Final between me and frankie, I went through the traps in 3rd at a high rpm trying to beat that little bugger
