Re: Need to know
Heres a picture of the race car. Flathead Ford V-8 292 CI top speed in three miles on the salt 196.882. Overhead valve conversion {292 CI ARDUN} top speed three miles 225.872. In July we plan to test prior to speed week in Limestone Maine at the former Loring Air Base Flathead top speed up North 200.921 thats in a mile and a half
All runs are from a standing start driving the car off the line. Ronnieroadster
