Yes, the Chevy II and the Nova were built to do this Carl. Perfect size, Chevy power.

But I still like Comets even if they rarely win. Man, a couple of these runs might have needed a parachute by the looks of it, but no bother, we have a hill.

It's really a feast for the eyes isn't it.

There is better footage (and sound) of these races than this given example. You need just to search.
