1980 - David Furlin against Maskin & Canners Pro Stock Hornet

Here I am lining up with a pro stock car, I had open headers and I still couldn't hear my car running!

He is playing with me I'm nervous as all heck. I cut a great light had the crowd on their feet, the rev limiter caught me at 6600 rpm in 3rd gear, I was to busy worrying about him and hit 4th gear to late, I lost. It was so cool to get the to race these guys!

The best ET this car ran is 12:29

Video clip - Early 1970's drag racing footage
1970's - Bob Crayton, Keystone Raceway Park
"Home town B Scheme Legend"

Bob Crayton regularly raced the SC/Rambler but took care to preserve the car and never cut it up. It was an eight time class winner at Keystone Dragway in Pittsburgh, PA., he turned his best 1/4 mile time of 12.61

Video was taken in the mid to late 80's and that was when my SC was running a all stock 390. Bob's mom took the video back then and the car went on to win that night, note the newer win decal on the window. This SC was a eight time class winner at this track back in the 70's. This footage was the last time Bob ever had the car was at the track.

2004 - Matt Wilson, Keystone Raceway PA

Matt Wilson at the track. It was my first and only pass in any car to date. It was my dream to take a Hurst SC/Rambler down the strip if only once, It was worth the over twenty year wait for me to do this in my SC. This was at PRP the old Keystone raceway near pittsburgh Pa.

2000 - Joie Vaughan, Mission Raceway Park, Mission B.C. Canada
"Nostalgic Olds Time Drags"

The best ET 13.10 @ 110 mph, after repairing a broken axle in the pits. Not bad for a tired ratrod 360 built by a girl.

2006 - Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Racing event held in Stanton Michigan

Bob Witt at the 2006 Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Racing event held in Stanton Michigan every September. I'm matched up with a 69 Road Runner with a 440 six pack. We, the SC/Rambler and I, beat him in the first two races. Best two out of three. Best time this year was 13.88, 102 mph, not bad for a stock SC/.
