From when I first ran the max wedge 63 lightweight, then with altered wheel base and 1965 fiberglass components and lastly with the engine set back 26" etc. As a youngster who didn't realize I was totally destroying a perfect 1963 Max Wedge Aluminum Front End car, but who knew ? In checking...

Some fellow racers are telling me the problem I have getting my car launched is because the first gear ratio in the torqueflite is really low to try and launch a 1000HP car off the line.. One of my buddies run a 62 Savoy with a 572 1000hp wedge that run 9.00's. He runs a Powerglide which has a...

Pixs from 1967 or so. Posted before but here they are again, just for kicks.

We could be in for a disappointing summer. My home track (Famoso, Bakersfield CA) announced closing for 30 days (at least). The opinion the virus is going to be around all summer....will we be shut down all summer ? What is feedback from your tracks ?
