In Oregon all of the car clubs got together one day and rented the Woodburn drag strip (don't know if they still do). Well, just for fun I entered my 30 T.S. and got paired with a late 20's T Pheaton-he won. If I remember correctly I did something like 15 sec. @20ish MPH on an 1/8th mile run. If was fun and the announcer got a laugh too.

Mike

p.s. I lost the engine a couple of months later-coincidence?
