Well John, I suppose you didn't notice the phrase RUNNING 1/4 Mile, did you?
I neglected to mention that I didn't time this and that this was the time 
reported at the Philadelphia Motor Speedway (a.k.a Front Street) by TWO
people with stopwatches(Heuers, no less :-) ) I'm willing to take on a
non-turbo Porsche in a straight line and I can almost guarantee that I'll
beat him off the line. If you find these times to be inflated, take the
pipes off almost any big-block and put in a nice nitro rig like mine and
you will see similar results. I don't run nitro on the streets, however.
The local police will forcibly remove the plumbing for it or confiscate the
car altogether.

                                        Don't tell Smokey about this...
