    Now THAT is how you shift a drag race car. WTF was with the starter guy trying to burn you down or what

  9. Only thing the starter did wrong is not make the Comet driver courtesy stage.

    Thank you! It did fill in some questions I had about my car but was unable to find in my research.
    The pic shown is an identical twin to mine and may be the same car that I am trying to rescue.
    Thanks again for your input,
