Saw this article this morning. Good read on Big Daddy who was a favorite of mine growing up. Found it interesting they talk about him making multiple passes in the Demon but zero times. Sounds like Dodge didn't like the times and told R&T to withhold them. Thoughts?

"With every pass, the front end yawns farther from the ground, the rear tires bunch up more violently, full throttle comes on sooner. After a dozen runs, the car coasts into the staging area.

“That’s as quick as you can get after it,” Don Garlits says, climbing out of the cockpit. “If I step on it any sooner, it spins.” Nobody is going to argue the point."
