    It may sound weird but if I ever won the lottery, this is the class I’d run. Forget fuel cars and pro stock. I love all the fiddling around inside the rules etc. I’m not even a Mopar guy.

    What's with the front end wobble on these mopars when the wheels contact the ground after launch?

    • @gregorytimmons4777
      @gregorytimmons4777 Před 5 lety +2

      That's just a thing with narrow front tires, tons of power, the weight of the engine and the violent power as the wheels return to the tarmac and the car, with drag race caster settings.

      Dude you need too research your late 60's super/stock racing, Bill Jinkens Chevy Camaro kicked there asses in 67' 68' & 69' and as the announcer said only 50 of the Cudas were built that was not street legal.

      @Dogboy1960 Před 5 lety

      Um.....no.......that's the tale told by people who either weren't there or they have bought into silly stories of re-written history. The unvarnished truth? The 426 Hemi was NOT the track dominator you seem to want to believe it was. The engine under the hood is but one piece of a puzzle. Ford and Chevy both brought engines and cars fully capable of running with any Hemi Car. The smart money was almost never on a Chrysler to win. Sheer #s was the problem. Chrysler was a REALLY DISTANT #3 in the 3 way race for sales back in the day. Any one Hemi car at the strip was up against many Fords and Chevy's. If you saw any Chrysler making it to the finals and then winning that final race.......you were seeing a car and driver who over came a serious disadvantage in the numbers.

      Dogboy1960 .....the history books & the record books disagree with you. Grumpys 67/8/9 camaro's were NOT successful racing against the Hemi cars. Only after adding weight to the Hemi cars did the Chevy start winning on a regular basis in 72. Sox & martin OWNED super stock in 69/70/71

    I love how these mopar guys are bragging on how fast these hemi's are. In NHRA Prostock the Wayne County Speed Shop was banned for life because they had to cheat to beat Bob Glidden and Warren Johnson. Then they staged break in and false flagged themselves to blame Warren Johnson which was shooting themselves in the foot. You wont ever see the names Scott Geoffrion and Darrell Alderman in NHRA again. Geoffrion died of a heart attack in 2006 and Darrell Alderman died in 2007 when he faded off into the sunset. Mopar faster than Ford and Chevy (or Oldsmobile at the time) yea only when they cheat.
