    The pure excitement after the first "correct" pass is what causes this to be addictive. Glad you guys are making this channel come alive! Hope to see you guys next year in my 70 Charger!

    You know, I've seen a lot of 55's in my life but there's just something about this one that makes it one of my favorites. Great job you guys! I'm sure that thing has a high 12 in it somewhere!

    Awesome car! Love the videos, your shifter looks like a Verti-Gate if so you only have to pull up on the finger trigger to put in first. To engage 2nd pull hard and straight back, 3rd push straight forward etc. again great videos and keep it up 👍🏼

    Will's 'stach alone is worth a follow! I enjoyed your showing from both of you. Glad you made the HRG Day! Good to see a new generation discovering the sport.

    I would invest in a good hurst completion plus shifter, also inspect the linkage and make sure none of the rods are bent and have good bushings.

    You guys and your enthusiasm give me a little bit of hope for the next generation. Glad the ol' YT algorithm dropped this on my feed.

    So cool! Totally jealous. Absolutely need to get your traction bars up tight though, better yet build some old school long ones.

  • @user-mj2kp3qy9g

    You need to learn how to shift first. Don't pull your foot off that throttle, just start yanking. Gears no lift shift come off the line about 5000 rpm for me in that car i would be running a gear right around 527 to 543 gear 4.56 for that car ist low enough that my thought on that. 400 hp to 450 you should be able to get in the 11sec
