I dig the design of this Nova II station wagon dragster... but they sure seem to be racing stupid. If no one can make a full power run, because everyone is packing more power than traction, that seems kinda stupid

They're constantly only winning by default of who doesn't cross lanes, wipe out and hit the guardrails, or lifts completely. I didn't see a single race in this video where the better car won, or the more powerful car won.

As for no prep? Bullshit. That's a dragstrip, and that's not painted black... that's been coated for years with track prep. If you want anyone to believe in that no prep crap, go find an airport runway no one's using, then lets see a race on a surface that's actually never been prepped

That's just stupid.

20 to 30 years after they had cheap color photography, why the hell were they still taking photos in black and white?

Pat was brought home from the hospital in a new '63 Tempest, and later drove that car through high school. Is it any wonder this is how he hot rodded another Tempest?

This car Pat built has won five season championships and 33 races in the Pro class, Pro Street, and Pontiac-only races over the years.
