Not sure how many of you check in on our FB pages and/or are members,
I thought I would post the Norwalk flyer as we will once again be having our "CAMMER REUNION" at the show.

Hope to see/meet some of you there!

Anyone have 1/4 mile times from a Sprint 6 car?

Are you bringing one to Norwalk to run? :)

I wish! Just always had a curiosity about these engines. I'd love to drive one someday.

In all my old auto mags from back in the day, most tests put down a Mid to High 15's.
But there are some as high as 19 and everything in between.

IIRC, Royal Pontaic/With Milt tuning & driving laid down a flat 15.
There was also a test with Doc Watson (Hurst Shifty Doctor) managing about the same.

Ok. That's neat information. Honestly I never searched for it. lol Thanks! That's scooting pretty good for a 6-banger!

Good story here: https://www.hemmings.com/stories/art...the-sprint-six

In the 15's, huh? Pretty good.

I read an article long ago about someone racing back in the day using the OHC6 in an A body and running in the 13's!!

Seems I wasn't alone with a need to get out!!
Much needed social therapy.

Great to join up with some of our Chapter members,
as well as meet so many of the FB forum members.
