70ish at the bottom, i came up behind him just as the hill started to go vertical, he started slowing down and i moved into the center lane,
still in OD i eased on the throttle and we ran up to 30PSi at 1250 EGT and just motored on by smiling, topped the hill at 72 and he was about 14 car lengths behind pumping out some nasty looking smoke. poor little thing


may not have been a smoke blowing race from a red light, but it sure was a great feeling
