I've never raced on the salt, but I sure as hell know how much harder 200mph on pavement is
than I expected. It took way more $$$ and time than I thought, and I give HUGE props to guys
who get it done on the salt.
As for Buddy, I'm in awe anytime you take something to the limit and then some. What's more
impressive at 200, an old Cad flathead or a nitro top fuel motor? "It's more fun to drive a slow
car fast than driving a fast car slow" - same idea here.
While I use an LSx and see the benefits from a starting hp standpoint, out of the box stuff like
the '38 impresses me more because it "shouldn't go that fast"... BTW, Buddy- I'm wearing my
Quest 200 shirt today, it's one of my favorites (next to my 2 Club shirt, of course)
