Hey in my younger days I had a 69 Super Bee.
440 6-Pack, man that thing was quick.
Even after I dropped the gears to a 3.63 burnouts like that were easy. Didn't even need to dump the clutch. Roll out at idle and punch it.
But one burnout was fun, on the expressway at 65, someguy in a Vette pulls up next to me and revs it. I know with the gears etc I couldn't out run him, but I knew I was many times quicker. fyi 560hp, 580ftlb torque dyno'd.
As he started to take off I punched it and downshifted to 3rd, and lit'm up. Still had enough grab to catch him and pullway as I hit 4th and wagged the tail, at 90+.
That was with Posi, although fiberglass belted tires.
