I used to race against that 3.2 powered targa a long long time ago, where is that?

The explosion knocked the driver out, broke both his legs and the car lost the front brakes and costed to the sand trap at the end of the strip. It was a 55# flywheel, supposed to explosion proof and a 3/8 steel scatter shield welded to the frame that took out the top of the car. Blankets and such were not invented yet. The engine ran Hilborn injectors and also lost the rear of the engine a bit.

This is not the Chevy.....
