A Night of Drag Racing

A couple of my husband’s friends wanted to have a drag race to see whose car was faster. A local track, Kansas City International Raceway, has a night where anyone can bring their cars out to race. After a few reschedules, a grudge match was finally on.

The first car:

A red 1967 RS
Camaro convertible with a Muncie 4-speed transmission and 327 small block built by D. It was dyno tested at 400hp.

The second car:

A red 2000 TransAm WS6 with a 4-speed automatic transmission and a factory stock 5.7L V8 OHV 16V FI Engine rated at
320hp.

Unfortunately it was too dark for me to get any photos of them going down the drag strip. They ended up racing 2 times while I was watching and at least once after I left. The 2000 TransAm was the hands down winner.
