So I went out drag racing today with my friends and my friends unlce and his friend (owner and driver of car). It was my virgin trip to a drag strip so it was a pretty badass first time. The car we were with is a 1965 dodge, had a 470ci MOPAR big block naturally aspirated with no NOS, putting about 900 ponies to the ground. I now have a new appreciation for big block V8's. 
Getting loaded up this morning, about 65 degrees outside Going to be a awesome day!
