JD, I'm gonna quote you since you seem to keep editing your original post. And also, just in case you change it again, so that folks here can see how bright you are.
From your post you
1. obviously were on the street no e.t. just mph and especially the guy
gave up at 90mph that does not happen at the track.
2. whatever
3.Your wifes DTS is slow and so is a stock callaway 12.8's at 113 big deal. I'm not the only one with a 12sec. lt1

high 15's. Why would you race anyone in a big front wheel drive
caddy ?? He gave up at 90 mph ?? Street racing the wifes caddy up to
90 mph on the street ?? Nice job

I once drove a Vega GT w/ a powerglide back when it was new. I don't think I ever drove a slower car. That thing wouldn't pull a greased string out of a cat's a$$.......

There were several occasions where I just pulled over to the side of the highway and let it sit for half an hour. Other than that it was very reliable and with the 4 spd it was a blast to drive & with the GT option it handled pretty well .... not to be compared with a Vette at all but not bad for a car that cost $2,850.00 brand new in 73. And it was my first car so how can I accept dispariging remarks

You are the smart one for sure racing a 16 second caddy at 90.

Yeah, loads of fun.
Anything said negatively about 8388 are just said in jealousy. He's a great guy, and to me, you just made yourself look really bad. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but didn't you just join?? Sit back a little bit, and relax.

Well due to street racing stories and hijacking, we can say good bye to another thread.
