Brian, What I was hinting around too, is that if Steve wants to be so historically accurate about everything then we need to know who the man behind the wheel was as he's what was in the ride. If you notice Welter's(sp? lol) pass has Butler driving with him mentioned.
The other problem I have is Steve is bad about belittling others accomplishments and disregards that they are putting up some stellar numbers for the type of car used and more importantly weight. It takes a helluva lot of power from Rex to put up his times in his car, now take that motor and put it in a 1900 pound dragster and it will run...
Misus: Agree
"Doesn't matter that he wasn't driving, he's still tuning it. You make it sound like "running 7's in a go kart" is easy. Well, if it were, everyone on this board with a dragster would be doing it"
It is easy install a BBC.
No the point was 7's in a door car is alot more impressive in my mind vs. in a dragster of anykind. As for the rest of the performance ifs and whens don't go far when it comes to time slips produced.

Points well taken.
It sounds like for the most part you and I are on the same page in this manner.
