Hi Doug,
Look to see you there as I will be coming up to watch on Friday. There will be a very fast RA 2 bird making it's first appearance. Painted Meridian Turquoise. Rick Mahoney's car, restored by Tiemann. Can not wait to see it run as I have heard the testing numbers.

Was it a auto or stick ? Yes, I think he ran 3 or so times 12.01 to 12.04 It has ran a best in T&T a couple weeks ago at 11.87. It is a column shift automatic. Also, it was one of the nicest 68 birds I have ever seen. Jody

Jody Bummer we only got 5 runs (4 if you consider it a run after the coolant problem with the Vette on the big end). Would have been nice to have Saturday since this was the first time the tach worked in the car for us

400 PLUS, That 68 RA 2 will be running out at VA next month as that is a pretty fast track. Hopefully my attempt to add pics works here as you can see how this car launches on bias plys.

Remember that "stock" and the way it "came from the factory" are two different things
