The fastest thing I ever rode in was a 1957 Chevy with a 4 barrel carb and a full race cam. I don't have a clue what that means. I just remember the school acquaintance telling me that as he was driving along. I said let's see how fast it is.

He took off and somewhere around 65 miles an hour as I was staring at the speedometer, it lunge like a cat out of a tree to 95 miles an hour. I don't know what that is in a 1/4 mile in seconds,but it just felt like a jet plane to me at the time. Never got in it again.
