Not only is it a strong runner, it is also a beautiful car. You can see some underhood video of it in this video at the 5:35 mark kzread.info/dash/bejne/p4ylpaqbhL3fmLg.html

I am glad you enjoyed it. It is my favorite car event each year and I wanted to put together a few videos to give a taste of what it's like to be there. If a person has a car that fits the rules, I encourage them to try this event. It doesn't matter if your car runs 17.00 or 11.50, there is no pressure and it's a heck of a lot of fun. And if you don't have a car, I recommend coming as a spectator. It's worth the trip. For a couple of days each September a group of like-minded people gather to share a common interest of racing vintage muscle cars. It doesn't matter where your brand loyalty lies, everyone gets along and has fun. It doesn't get much better than this! I'm looking forward to the 2024 event.

The red Torino puttin down low 12's was pretty impressive. The A-12 with a 12.10 was great for a big car. Purpose built. Would Love to have any of these rides.

Thank you for your videos. I Love those cars. They're from my era. I had a 1970 Ram Air IV GTO with a Rock Crusher Close Ratio 4-Speed and 3.90 Posi Rear; a 1970 Camaro SS 396 (402) with most of the same; etc. The RA IV GTO and 70 Camaro SS are two cars you will never forget when you own them. Love all the rest of them, so many awesome vehicles. Thanks again, Grandpa.

The 302 Camaro was quicker on earlier runs but developed some mechanical issues later in the day. I failed to capture the earlier runs on video.

The Steele Garage is the best. Great coverage, thanks!

Thanks. I'm no movie maker but I attempted to capture the sights and sounds of the event as if a person was there walking through the staging lanes, standing at the fence, or sitting up in the stands.

@@TheSteeleGarage anymore film strip videos coming? You said you had one for the '70 SS Chevelles?

@johncornell3665 I'm pretty sure I do have a dealer training film that introduces the new '70 SS Chevelle. Since I've not converted it to a digital format yet, I'm not sure what it shows. It would have been produced very early (probably before the cars hit the dealers) so I don't think it will mention the LS6. I think I have introduction films for almost every Chevrolet model from '63-'72 and the only ones I've seen/heard are the few that I've uploaded so far. I look forward to getting them all done.

The rules allow some limited modifications: www.psmcdr.com/rules In years past they was a program where owners could voluntarily tear down their engine to prove they were withing the rules. Many of the fastest cars did prove to be within the allowed rules.

IMO.... Some of these listed gear ratio,horsepower, weight don't add up to the IT'S listed ET's...for instance: 290 hp, auto,3.90 gear,3870 lbs best etc of 11.94?....😮... or....360 hp,auto,3.64 gear,4175lbs best etc of 12.36?...on bias ply tires and original equipment radials?. and there are others. ...especially given modern mustangs and camaros can't run those numbers with more power,less weight and comparable gearing.
