Dave Brian's '61 works very well. Figure he "might" have got in the 8's, but not to be. Not to bad for the OEM headed old girl. Did he have the cast 2x4's or the sheet metal on?

I believe his best is 9.014 in the '61 "white" car. He's a bit faster in his '62 as it's been in the 9's.

Like I've said for years, OEM can be made to work very very well. I know he's stock X frame with some add on parts and a roll bar.

Who are we talking about EZ? I thought this was a Flying Dutchman thread.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Dave Rifkin</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Saw Benny run a 10:36 on Sunday; forget who he was running but, it was just one of the pre-elimination rounds. Stayed long enough to see a few cars run before a Camaro oiled the track down pretty good; didn't want to stick around while they cleaned up the track.

One car that impressed the heck out of me was a white 1961 Biscayne or BelAir with a 409. That car pulled the wheels 4-5' in the air and ran real strong; forget what time he ran but, it was fast.

Beautiful weather and some real nice cars. </div></div>

Dave post here.

Yep, I agree. The post is about the Flying Dutchman. I suggest you start a post about what you want to talk about and leave this discussion open to BBBenny and his car. New posts about Drag Racing are always cool.

If you are talking about 409's in the above post lets do it.
Start a new one on that subject and car.

Calm down Hillary. I responded to some else's post, go rag on him.

Now we are name calling? Just start a new post about the cars you want to talk about John. That is all I am trying to say. This is about Benny and his car.

Benny does a good job with these historic posts of his weekly runs at different tracks with ZERO help from anyone and always great to here how his weekend went!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]

Keep this thread about Benny's adventures and not about who is better or faster but ONE man doing his thing at the track.

GO Benny GO!!
