Ok here is a blast form the past.

Tim Jakus (ya' the owner of the "gray Nova") also had another car that he used to street race. He bought a 1972 Z/28 RS (super rare) with a roudy 396. The funny part was that his parents did not know he even owned the car and he used to store it at the Pick N' Save in Waukesha (in the parking lot).

We used to drive over there and pick up the car, fill it up with race gas, and head to Hwy 100 to race it. The thing at 12-1 compression, 4.11's, a big solid, Super T-10 4 speed and a Holley. It had BFG's so hook was a BIG problem !!!

One night we raced Senderhauf's Buick after the south turn-a-round on Hwy 100. We started from a slow roll and that big old Buick lurched as the cheater slicks grabbed, Tim banged second gear and the thing was still spinning, into third and we started gaining on them but it was too late. We were educated on the value of "hook" !!!

That car was purchased for the sum of $2,000 in 1986
(those were the days). How would you like to have this car today?
