Back in the late '60s & early '70s one of my friends had a six cylinder Nova three on the tree that he could get to shift quickly. Since I had experience with that set up as well as my four speed '63 Sport Fury he asked me to run it for him. I don't remember the times, but it definitely wasn't any rocket. This was back in the days when Gateway was a 1/8 mi. track run by Tiny Minor. Tiny didn't believe in spending a lot of money on frivolous things like shut down room. As slow as that Nova was, trying to get it stopped with the ridiculous nine in. drums "the General" used was interesting to say the least. One guy with a truly fast Camaro actually rolled it trying to stop. Ah! The good old days.
