    Yea, I ran that FAST event once and had the time of my life! First time back to the track in over 20 years and I won the whole shootin match!

    I can't wait to take the 64 there. This will be the fastest car I've ever owned. I'm going to dyno it too. It supposedly has 500+hp.

    Adam, saw your LeMans was "F.A.S.T." legal. I think the 68 Biscayne, which was yellow, ended up running the FAST race at some point. The Catalina is quicker than the Biscayne. But the Chev motor was stock, although the car did have a 2:88 S T10, and a 4:11 gear with an aluminum flywheel. I've got the aluminum wheel for the Cat, and although it will require a new driveshaft, I think I will put a 2:88 trans in also. Those 2 changes should get it into the 12's. The tough part is a better rear gear, I bought a set of 4:33's from a guy that are suppose to be for that odd rear end in the car, but even if they are actually correct for the rear, installing them will be a bitch as the 3:42 carrier will probably need a special spacer machined, and spacers reduce the reliability factor for barges like the Cat. Really like the Catalina, it's been a struggle to get used to that "nose" , it's kind of like a face only a mother could love , but the car does have gobs of charisma, and the 3" exhaust is just awesome when idling.
