Default Re: Gene Wray's (1 0f 54) 1966 442 W30!

I had a chance to go for a ride in this car not long after Gene bought it. Had my son along that day and he got a huge thrill out of seeing Gene put his full body weight into the 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. There was a lot of tire smoking and squirming as the 775-14 tires TRIED to get some traction. With 4:33 gears not much chance!! Not hard to tell this was a 12 second car out of the box.
