Default wanna see a 8 second car? look inside!

this car is a friend of mines' dads's. it's a 1967(i think) tube chassis corvette. we ran it last weekend and it ran a 10 sec. the reason for the slow time(slow lol) is because he was getting his license, so he started at an idle and never fully gunned it, and he never got above 150 or he would have had to use the chute. he would have run more better times but the water pump messed up and it wouldn't run. we had to push that thing up to the line 3 times and drag it back when it cut out again, it got pretty annoying. anyways here is a pic of the car, sorry but it's the only one i have. i wanted to race it in my civic but they wouldn't let me. lucky for him, i could have taken him. lol, i only wish!



hmmm... lets get this pic working!

ahhh there we go!

I think most everybody on H-T has seen an 8-sec car somewhere already.
