    Cool call out to the old man and his Malibu. Hope you guys make it happen. Old Man's Garage, SRC and Horsepower Depot are my favorite channels. Your family really makes it happen especially in the F.A.S.T. Class. I guessed 103lbs lighter than you weighed. Nice!

    You guys are always gonna be targets. You're honest, have great cars, and most of all have fun. My 65 convertible with a small block is just under 3200lbs. With what you have to do to race, roll bar and so on , you are normal weight. The traction bar I was referring to for a C2, mounts from the 4 bolts that hold the rear spring and the snubbed. Give your tie rod ends a good going over, a friend of mine rolled his 67 Csmaro at Millan. They come down hard after wheelies over and over again. Hey you guys have fun, keep it up.

    As you can tell from my screen name I am a Mopar guy but I absolutely give credit where its due. Brother you got a bullet there! Love that car. I've never been to a FAST class race.but watched them for years on RUclips. I'm in central N.C. and I can't recall seeing advertising for FAST class races anywhere around. I dont know why this car is so quick but you done an awesome job making it work! Congrats!

      Most likely some drag class some people made up, so they could add it to their car's portfolio to add $20K to the selling price of their cars.
      Just like all the specialty street race cars that are popping up now. Got huge stories about the Underground racing their cars were supposed to have done in 1966, that nobody can truthfully document; because most of those 33 year olds in '66 are dead.
      Like how anyone less than 30 years old today, know about DDT. The first time America tried to exterminate Americans.

      Gotta believe a Big piece is that Corvette Chassis itself. Just about everything they know was applied to his Orange '69 Camaro too. Yet that car couldn't make the runs this car and his father's C3 both can do. Weight transfer on launch with the Corvette IRS may have something to do with the advantage vs the more standard muscle car set up. At least that's the one thing I see as different that is most obvious difference.

      @@stevejewell9263 I tend to agree. That chassis is working and the car is for sure hooking! You can have tons of horsepower and torque but if you can’t hook it to the track…you ain’t going nowhere. Looking forward to seeing if he can get it into the 8’s.

    Thanks for sharing the ‘67. That is a nice car that looks like a street car other than cage and this and that for racing. Yes, a mid year ‘67 is a brick compared to a ‘68 or ‘69 going thru the air. But nothing like a mid year ‘63-‘67 coupe or convertible w/hardtop. The ‘68 up has a wider stock tire/rim.

    All of the doubtful critics making all kinds of rude accusations must be Ford & Mopar guys, lol. And this is coming from me, who is NOT a brand loyal snob. Oh, and by the way, to add insult to injury: Both the 24 hr and 5,000 mile high speed records were shattered and still held to this very day by a BONE STOCK 1990 Corvette ZR1 with the legendary normally aspirated LT5 engine. The only exception was headers and open exhaust. Racing approved wheels, tires, and full roll cage had to be added per the official rules. Ford, Audi, Porsche, even Mercedes have all tried to break those records..........and all of them failed miserably.
