    Nah i clearly recall him saying he was down to about 85 by the time he hit the top of snow shoe. That's my back yard there. 105k frac pump with the jakes not working I made it just fine. No smoke just fine and dandy.

    Sometimes y’all make me scratch my head. Next time read what i wrote, google it, then post a responce.

    Btw, i googled it for you. And no they were not running 750+ hp back then. Not even close.

    “It was 45 years ago today that Buddy Baker broke the 200 MPH mark for a closed course with a stock-bodied car, driving a Dodge Charger Daytona past the mark at Talladega. It was an amazing event, and involved some corporate intrigue.”

    Two weeks later. NASCAR implemented restrictor plates lolol

    I’ll repeat myself. The list is very short.

    And the first car to break 200mph was 1000hp Sunbeam.
