You could always find the nearest drag strip and enter it in the Door-Slammer bracket. Or Grocery-Getter. Or whatever they call it in your neck of the woods. All you would need is a helmet.

I’m curious, now, how fast that little beauty WILL go!

Last time I went to a Spectator Drag I was driving a stock ‘72 Ford F-250 Camper Special that ran VERY consistent 19.01’s: like 19.018, 19.019. I could have done it all day without breaking out.

Sadly I was a bit green and dialed it in at 19.0 on the windshield, or I could have walked away with the Big Prize. As it was, I got beat by just 0.007 in the second heat. I think the guy who eventually won the day was driving an Aerostar, of all things.
