Re: Racing The Datsun Tonight. Hope it Slows Down.

That little Z is flying! When I put my roll bar in originally, I did not like the look of it w/ the top down, but I knew safety wise running low 11s was the only way I was gonna take the car down the track. Now, I think w/ the top down, the car looks super tough, especially w/ the 275 60R15 drag radials. There is no more important thing than being safe. A few years back at my local track, some idiot w/ a built Shafiroff big block in a 442 convertible would rocket down the track in the low 11s and the car was all over the place. They eventually threw him out, but I think of what a fool he was for running in a convertible making so much power and getting so loose. Always be safe and always have fun! -Mike
