This year’s coverage of the Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race (PSMCDR) featured a twist of a different perspective but, for you racing enthusiasts out there, you probably want to see ETs, right? So below you get your wish in all its glory.
All told, there were 59 pairings (meaning 118 cars racing), with another 12 cars dropping out due to mechanical issues. Some of the cars that went MIA included a 1968 Hurst/Olds, 1974 Plymouth Duster 360, an A12 Road Runner, a 1970 Hemi Challenger R/T, three 1970-71 Buick GS 455s, a 350/330-powered Pontiac Custom S, a 1973 LeMans GT, 1970 AAR’Cuda, 1971 Hemi Charger Super Bee, and an L78-powered 1969 Chevelle SS 396.
Fastest cars were a Hemi GTX, Max Wedge Belvedere, Yenko Camaro, Hemi’Cuda, and Yenko Deuce but, if you’re familiar with the event, you know going fastest is not the purpose. Below you’ll find the stats and their qualifying times. Fastest ET was Tom Hoover pulling 11.57 with his Belvedere for a best of two.
