I remember going on the first Drag Week in 2005 and the young man with the 62 Tempest rode in a car seat in the back of his Dad's yellow GTO. Time flies

I messed up big time my second time to a track at age 18, and my dad was with me. I rolled a bit past the start line and backed up. The light hit green and I popped the clutch and my chest hit the steering wheel. I hit the brake just in time to get stopped before hitting the car waiting behind me. The guys eyes were as big as a baseball! My dad brought that up at every gathering for the rest of his life... 😧 😎

Cool Rally, cool decal. You guys have a nice car, that's one bad little Pontiac. I'm considering keeping my '72 Olds 350 cubic inch Cutlass Cpe., ala natural. Got to get it running, needs a carburetor, new tires and a few other things, probably take a few grand to get it toad worthy. Thanks for sharing your happy times.

Many of those trucks come with big blocks. My uncle has a 1971 GMC truck that came factory with a 454. Many of the early 70's 2500 and 3500, 4x4 and suburban trucks came with big blocks from the factory because they were great towing engines and for offroad. I bet that big block is from the factory.

Buddy with the 70 Chevelle that has a diesal engine in it does lot's of Drag and Drive Events I have seen him at RMRW and Sick Week. Looks like he got a paint job since the last time I saw it unless it's not the same guy but I doubt there are two 1970 Chevelle around with Duramax Diesels. It was silver when I saw it last. I think it was Sick Week 2021 I think.

You were rolling through the water, should have done a burnout, then tighten up the shocks to control hop, but you most likely Will get less 60ft. Times hooking if it has a tighter converter. Next track stop do a burnout.
