People get irked over all sorts of stuff
I beat a guy that was irked because my Duster had a car seat in the back. Apparently he thought it was a prop that I put in the car to purposely humiliate him. It was actually for my 4 year old daughter and was such a PITA to remove that I just left it in the car.

Not trying to start anything but I used to run small block Mopar and they it ran in the early 11's high 10's but I had a lot of money into it. I built a 9.5/1 440 30 over with TRW flat tops, 452 cast iron heads with 2.14 1.81 and a bowl port and a 850 holley with a 727 and 430 gear and it ran 10.43 in the same car with very little tuning. It only cost me around 2500.00 and some used parts I acquired at swap meets. Its more a "the bang for the buck!" I loved my 340 notchback, it was a monster on the street. Its just cheaper to go fast with the Big Block.

The car and motor I built for my Mom is a all steel, all interior Duster 366" pump gas that runs 11.0's. All the Mopar guys around here are stuck in the past and none of them ever really ask me about my combos.
Well im not stuck in the past, please do tell about this combo.
Factory 360 block with main studs, Edelbrock heads that I worked a little bit, Airgap intake, Quickfuel 850 on pump gas, TTI headers, .540ish flat tappet cam, Ultimate 8", and 4.30 gears. Those are the highlights but I can give you more info if you want it. Best 1/8th mile pass was a 6.89.

guys will come up to me, asking about the car, when I tell them it has a 360 in it, they respond with "oh" and walk away... I apologize its not a BB or a hemi, or even a 340

i had a guy walk over to my car in the pits and pop the hood... I was walking back to my car at the time and was pretty annoyed ...that someone would have the nerve to do that with out my permission...he was with a few other guys.. I said "can i help you"? ... they thought it was a big block..and were surprised it was not... we couldnt have a conversation because of me being pissed about him touching my car with out my permission.. I said..."how about i go over and lift up your wifes skirt and take a look?" that didnt go over well....and i did not make any new friends that day..
found out he has a big block dart tubbed with wheelie bars and 2x4s sticking out the hood.that runs high 11s.
