The C-2's make super fine doorslammers. I have never figured out why the likes of Hairy Glass or the others have not gone after making the C-3 into a good fiberglass kit that you can stick some good sized slicks under. Besides the Stock/Super Stock classes I can't think of many C-3's that are really serious candidates for some 8-9 second passes down the 1/4 mile.

Thanks for the pix! :cheers:

Some are at Cayuga ( Toronto Motorsports Park ) they had the AC Delco Canadian Nationals there today with the IHRA show. Pretty good show with Top Fuel dragsters as the hook, but the Pro Stock, Funny Car and Pro Modified was excellent as they are all very close in there respective classes for example 24 Pro Stock cars within 5-6 100th's of each other, very competetive.

Other pics were taken at St. Thomas near London.

Bill Kuhlman(sp?) used to run a 1968 or 69 pro mod(or super chevy), I can't remember which one. It was nice. It didn't really look like a 68 or 69 though.
