13.67 Seconds!

Sacramento Raceway, Sacramento, California

June 16, 1999

 

Well, looks like the locker rear, better exhaust, and new (to me) transmission did the trick- here's the Impala leaving the starting line on its best-ever run: 13.67 seconds at 100.735 mph.  That's 1.3 seconds better than its best time a year before (and almost 4 seconds better than what it ran in 1995 with the old tired 350).   Check out the 5.0 Mustang, which was sporting a "piss on Chevy" sticker and lost to my 4-door family barge by a full second-and-a-half.  Of course, what you don't see here is the 4-door Galaxie that was running low 12s that day...
