Hey, that didn't look like a legal dragstrip, those fastback guys really are part of some Dodge Rebellion.  Do you know which one is supposed to be the 440 and which the Hemi?

My guess was that the hemi was the light colored one that was behind at the start and then blew away the dark car.   I was right.

This is me racing my 2 1966 Dodge Chargers. The Silver one is the 426 Hemi 4 Speed and the Green one is the 440 Auto.

It's tough to beat a 2nd to 3rd shift in a good running elephant.  I was disappointed at first when we made the change, of course the #'s 440 was built pretty stout.  But as I learned where the torque was I'm now spoiled.

The hemi absolutely ROASTED his tires out of the hole, and the 440 automatic car took advantage of a lead.....  but like somebody said, it was all over in third gear,  "goodbye time"  :icon_smile_wink:
