On my first weekend of drag racing the '64 and I had the pleasure of putting a tri five Chevy on the trailer in the first round, I broke out in the second round with a 14.70 on a 14.95 dial in...but at least I lost to another Mercury (Comet), he broke out too (but not as badly) tryin' ta catch me!

Life is good in the Blue Oval family. Nicely done. I'll bet the chebby guy is talking to himself, getting hammered by an old straight axle Ford truck.
I can hear him now.... "Where did that guy come from?"
I love happy endings where the good guys win.
